I called the Park number shortly after 8 am and got a live person. Was told that one elevator was up and running so we quickly headed out.
The elevator ride takes only one minute at a speed of nine miles per hour. The depth of the elevator shaft is 1.5 times the height of the Washington Monument.
The person who said we had pretty much seen all we would in the Cavern was wrong. Before getting acclimated to the lighting when you looked down on the path, there was water spots that looked like gaping holes in the path and were quite unsettling.
Did not want to use flash so pics are not as good as they could have been
Like walking through a strange fairyland. The rock formations from a distance looked like Christmas trees.
