Every once in a blue moon the universe awards me the opportunity to experience two of my favorite activities being with my bestie and caving. This day was gave me a whole new level of bliss. She took me to one of the most stunning caves in the U.S Cathedral Caverns. The massive entrance is 128 feet across and 25 feet high, making it the largest commercial cave opening in the world.
The trek from the mouth of the cave to its farthest reaches is a little more than a mile along the sloping and twisting walkway. It is also wheelchair accessible. The cave is a constant 60 degrees year round. The largest chamber, known as the Big Room, is 792 feet long and 200 feet wide. Other cave formations include the world’s largest stalagmite, Goliath, which is 45 feet tall and 243 feet around, another stalagmite that is 35 feet tall and only three inches around, a stalagmite forest, and a 135-foot-long wall of flowstone that resembles a frozen waterfall. source
