Bechan Cave
Kane County rock shelter—mammoth fossils and archaeological site
注意： Archaeological/paleontological site; access may be restricted. Check with BLM or authorities before visiting.
Bechan Cave is a large sandstone rock shelter in Kane County, along Bowns Canyon Creek at about 4,200 feet elevation. It is roughly 31 meters wide, 9 meters high, and 52 meters deep with a single southwest-facing entrance. Excavations in the 1980s uncovered Pleistocene megafauna remains—including mammoth hair and an enormous dung layer (the largest known coprolite deposit), with Columbian mammoth dung dated to roughly 12,000 years ago. The name comes from a Navajo word meaning "big dung." The site is significant for paleontology and archaeology; public access may be restricted.
