Then as soon as you get up the mountain, go N and N to get to cavern. Then explore the cavern and see where you come out........ That's how you find the other entrance, by exiting it in the first place and taking a note of where you come out!!!!

You don't need to have gone in the caverns to find the east entrance. You don't need to run around for hundreds of moves to placate the giraffe. You just need to walk a few locations away and try ONE option ONE time. Any not surprisingly, it's in the ONE obvious nearby location where one might find an entrance to caverns. How hard can this be? (My apologies if a bug in one's game prevents one from doing this, somehow.)
