I’ll admit I was a little nervous about going that far into a cave, but we loved it. It’s open enough for those who are nervous to feel comfortable, yet does provide some manageable tight spaces to have a little adventure. Highly recommend renting the lights. It’s so dark down there regular flashlights do nothing. Also we only rented one light for the two of us…it was fine, but 2 would have helped us navigate the cave more quickly. Other tips bring a light jacket, book your parking permit ahead of time, bring hand sanitizer if you plan to use the bathroom.

About 1 mile walk to end of cave. It’s large wide Cave to walk. Pretty much the same view through the whole cave. I would recommend sturdy walking boots, pants, sweatshirt, gloves its 49 degrees inside. You will need a flash light which you can rent for $5. IPhone light is not strong enough. If you have trouble walking this might not be for you. There many opportunities to trip if not careful. It was woth exploring, we went about 3/4 of the way.

The experience is certainly unique. I recommend a high power, hand held flash light...Head lamps don't give a clear light view. Cold, wear extra. clothing. Footing is challenging, but worth it.
