Caveman evicted by federal authorities
The Associated Press


FLAGSTAFF - A 57-year-old man who had been living in a cave in the Coconino National Forest for more than a decade has been evicted.
For 11 years, Thomas J. Crawford made his home in a cave. Federal authorities say he had a bed, books and clothes arranged on hangers. He even had pots and cutlery for cooking in his cave home.

On Friday, he was arrested for using a national forest for residential purposes after a Flagstaff resident reported a suspicious camp in a remote drainage on Mount Elden.

Crawford pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court on Monday and was sentenced to one year of probation and was banned from the forest.

During the hearing, he said he lived in the forest by choice.

He declined to speak to reporters, but he told Forest Service officials he would come to Flagstaff, which is about a mile away from the cave, every week or so to get supplies and water. Sometimes, he would work here.

Crawford, accompanied by Forest Service officials and a reporter from the Arizona Daily Sun, was allowed to remove his possessions after he was released from jail on Tuesday.

"As you can see, I don't have a TV or anything," he said. "I've got the sky, the wind, the rain, the canyon wrens. ... This is a beautiful mountain. You could explore it a lifetime."

A crew will be going up to the cave in the coming weeks to clean the site, said Forest Service spokeswoman Raquel Poturalski.

Answer 3

Yes and Yes. It offered me the opportunity to connect with what it might have been like.

On a different note,,,MY gender,,,no offnese meant globally, is only short steps away from "THE CAVES"

I have no clue as to your rational for the Q, but Yes, I have lived as such, briefly, in primitive circumstances, and at the very least, survived, and appreciate some things I am privy to currently... Though there are things I'd be OK with, currently, in doing without.

Yes. I lived in Egypt, where they like, don't have houses and stuff. So I had to share a cave with real, live, man-eating goats. I waded my way through goat crap for 6 months. I had cute little rabiez infested bats hanging around every where, so I got brain infection, which led to severe seizures, vomitting, memory loss.. what was the question again?
