Mammoth Cave Limestone

Cave Walkway - Mammoth Cave Entryway
Most visitors to the National Park choose to take an underground cave tour.  People who don't like dark places or being underground don't choose to take a cave tour.  Cave tours are not for everyone. The size of the domes in the rock above the paths and the size of the pits in the rock beneath the paths is so large as be breathtaking.  One must see the size of the underground features to believe the size of the underground features.  Some sections of the cave were being made with walkways and railings when World War II interupted the progress.  These sections could potentially be completed and opened for visitors to experience.
