Dad's Notes:  This is a beautiful place - both outside the cave and in! The beginning of the cave is an awesome sight, a natural bridge giant stone walls - (people have had weddings there). It is a great place to sit and get inspired!
     This huge cavern system was formed by an underground river. There are huge crystal rooms (Calcite crystals) and many flowstones. Look closely in the 'turn around room' you can see where ancient flowstones were carved into by the river.
     It's nice & cool inside the cave, 68 degrees year round. The tour is about 1 hour and 20 minutes, so I recommend comfortable shoes and having the kids go to the bathroom before the tour! Jacob got a kick out of the tour - kids will like it!
     There is a special lantern tour twice a month that goes into a lower cavern system, a Sam Bass mystery night. Also, the guide will elaborate on some really neat history of the cave including the Indian council room, dance hall, confederate ammo stores and church services!
