| Notes
| Used in the book Our Romantic Niagara by Albert H. Tiplin. Located on the U.S. side, the Milk Cave is a perfect example of the erosive power of running water. In this photograph, one can see the extent to which constantly running water has eaten away entire layers of Lockport Limestone. Milk cave is also known as "Buttermilk Cave" ; |

Title | Rock composition at Bender's Cave |
|---|
| Creator
| Seibel, George A. |
|---|
| Notes
| Also known as Devil's Cave or Sorceror's Cave, Bender's Cave is located just north of Hubbard Point, the origin of the falls. It runs along the same layer of Lockport limestone as Sunny's cave and Indian cave. Here we see the interior cave-wall and the discolouration that has occured to the limestone after so many thousands of years. |
