Supposedly there are caves near the base of Turkey near the tracks/river but I've never been able to find them.  Has anyone ever seen these caves?  There also said to be runes or inscriptions in the rock made by "pre-Columbian travelers" i.e. Vikings but more likely hobos.

In the winter you can see them from Riverside.  Not really caves more of a series of deep overhangs but they are near the wastewater treatment plant.

I'm glad the image and reputation of Turkey Mountain is changing to one of a serious recreational spot instead of a gay cruising outpost.  It truly is one of the better gems in the Tulsa area for hiking, biking, sight-seeing, wildlife watching, etc.
