    • Favorite Thing: Marvel at the amount of time that is required of nature to make this formation. It takes about 70 years to build up just one-inch length of the limestone rock! So, can anyone take a guess how long it's going to make such formations?

    • Favorite Thing: Check with the ranger about geology. One said the age of most formations in this cave is about 800,000 years!
    Now, how's that for perspective!
