This MAMMOTH Cave is the Longest Cave on Earth
We talk about the geology and the history of the Mammoth Cave area. We go inside the visitor center and learn about how the cave system was formed.
We take the Domes and Dripstones tour. The story of George Morrison is told. Many rock formations are seen on the tour. The drapery room is one highlight.
Note the Domes and Dripstones tour will not be offered until Fall of 2023.
