I see a lot of people asking about these, so I figured I'd make a LDB entry on them. They're very visible from the main road through Pacific, which happens to be US 66. They're not all that interesting and they only go back 100 feet or so. They reconnect in the back so the rock between the openings is actually columns. There are small holes at the top near the back that lead to the next chamber over. There are still active mines just to the north, but they don't appear to connect and I haven't attepted to explore them. Some people store things such as trucks, a tractor and a trailer and sometimes construction supplies in the West openings.

The local cops run up and down 66 with regularity. I honestly don't know if they're a problem but they didn't bother me.

Gloves and decent boots would help.
