Unbelievably
fabulous!
All
we
could
do
was
repeat
the
word
"wow"
and
stop
every
20
seconds
to
take
photos.
It's
helpful
if
you
book
time
slots
and
tickets
online
before
you
arrive,
you'll
have
a
one
hour
window
during
which
to
enter,
but
there
is
no
time
limit
once
inside.
Tickets
for
time
slots
are
only
$2,
but
there
is
also
an
entrance
fee
for
the
park
itself
unless
you
have
a
parks
pass.
There
is
an
elevator!
If
you
have
bad
knees
or
something
that
makes
hiking
difficult,
there
are
two
nice
large
shiny
elevators
that
will
bring
you
down
to
cavern
level
and
then
back
up
again.
There
are
clean
bathrooms
immediately
accessible
before
you
head
down,
and
then
again
just
off
the
elevators
when
you're
subterranean.
We
went
during
the
first
week
of
January,
2022
and
the
weather
was
perfection.
Be
advised,
depending
on
what
happens
with
COVID
this
part
may
still
be
relevant-
you
do
have
to
wear
a
mask,
even
outside
if
social
distancing
isn't
possible,
and
yes,
you
have
to
wear
one
in
the
caverns
themselves.
If
you
want
to
wait
until
masks
are
no
longer
necessary
to
visit
that's
your
prerogative,
but
if
not
please
be
prepared
because
they
do
enforce
the
policy.
Because
of
COVID
the
snack
bar
area
down
in
the
caverns
was
not
open.
You
can
traverse
the
caverns
via
a
paved
pathway
with
railings
on
either
side.
The
short
route
is
pretty
easy,
and
while
the
longer
route
does
have
a
steep
section
at
the
end
you
can
cut
back
to
the
other
side
before
you
get
to
it.
A
good
portion
of
the
path
is
wheelchair
accessible,
and
when
it
changes
it
is
clearly
marked
with
a
narrowed
railings
to
prevent
you
from
going
past
it.
I
suggest
bringing
as
little
as
possible
in
with
you,
wearing
comfortable
walking/hiking
shoes/boots,
and
wearing
layers.
It
is
quite
a
damp
humid
environment.
If
you
want
to
take
photos
but
don't
have
a
fancy
camera,
get
an
inexpensive
tripod,
even
one
that
can
just
perch
on
the
railings
would
work,
and
put
your
phone
camera
in
night
mode.
This
is
what
I
did
and
I
got
good
results.
Consider
bringing
a
flashlight
to
have
a
better
look
at
certain
features
and
to
help
take
photos.
Be
advised-
I'm
not
sure
the
parking
lot
is
well
equipped
to
handle
larger
RVs,
so
if
you
have
one
I'd
make
sure
you
can
drive
up
with
it
before
heading
out.
I
think
that's
everything!
Happy
spelunking!
