There are more than 200 explored caves on the Arizona Strip, but they won't be revealed. Kyle Voyles manages the caves, and he is tough to contact. You can talk to him at the BLM located on riverside drive, however, and see what he can do for ya. I talked to him a few years back and he said one of the funnest in the area is Bloomington Cave though.
There are some ice caves on Mt. Trumball area and are located on private property. Kyle mIght give you the location to those.......maybe.....
Other than that, It's tough getting any information for that area.●Canyoneering 'Canyon Conditions' @ www.candition.com

If you find any down here, let me know.
I haven't broken into the inner circle of caving yet. Very tough to get info. Just FYI the Bloomington caves are gated now, but permits are very easy to get and free. Just stop by the BLM office, and take 2 mins to fill out a permit.Your safety is not my responsibility.

I know of a few down there. Including some that are unconfirmed caves. Shoot me an email, maybe we can coordinate finding some of these leads. jeff.a.baird(AT)gmail.com

Pretty area though, and nice hike.
