Today we went to Jewel Cave National Monument. They have several park ranger tours and you have to book them almost 1 week in advance. This was the first guided tour I've ever done and it was really cool going down there. The cave now is 217 miles long and only 5% of it has been explored so far. They explore about 10 miles a year and it's all by volunteers. The elevator takes you down 235' in under a minute and the deepest part of the cave we were in was 380'. IIRC there are 734 steps spread out throughout the cave. We did the Scenic tour and it was really fun and cold as it's only 49* down there. ?

These are from the visitors center explains about the cave.

When you get to the bottom of the elevator you walk down a small set of stairs to this platform. Then there's stairs and flat walkways all through the cave. Our tour was 90 minutes long.

I somehow managed to squeeze 4 vehicles into my 3 stall garage. I am just going to leave them all inside for the night.

You're lucky they all fit. The owner is gone and so I asked the girl at the front desk if I could use his covered area. Thanks God she said yes because it looks like it's coming this way quick. Plus now there's a tornado warning until midnight! ?
