I was just doing a GE overview of the location in question. There are a few decent sinks in that area and several places where there is water catchment. If there is a cave in there, you may feel airflow through the rocks. In the higher elevations, airflow will be noted during outside temperatures below cave temperatures. Air flow will be noted at lower elevations when the outside temperature is above cave temperatures.

On GE, go to tools. 3D view will come up. Under Terrain, change your elevation to a higher number. It defines surface depressions much better. I usually set mine on 2.0-2.5.

it's a baby cave, or AKA a fissure or crack. It'll grow up one day to be a big cave in about a million years. Based on the current dissolution rate of limestone by rainfall/ground water. Depending on your location, you might want to check with WKU's Center for Cave and Karst Studies, UT, or TAG grotto (Tennessee Alabama Georgia).
