Best Answer

Jim White

is credited as being one of the first explorers of Carlsbad Cavern. Others made claims that they too explored the famous cave, but little evidence exists to prove or disprove these claims. Jim White spent much of his life working in the cave, as a guano miner and later as a park guide, so his are the stories still told today. He is the iconic early cave explorer.
