The holes enlarge and merge together to form small basins filled with calcite-saturated water. Ceiling water falls into these basins, causing a disturbance. The water splashes and flows over the outer edges of the basin to deposit calcite and create a rim. Flowstone - is created by calcite deposits as water flows over walls and other surfaces. Although the cave is lighted, a flashlight will allow you to peer into corners and add to you enjoyment.
Cameras are welcome, but remember a flash.
Touching them leaves oil behind, causing them to stop growing, and to turn from white to gray. Smoking in the cave also causes discoloration. Leave your pets outside the cave. Information Home Page Sent mail to KAC with questions or comments about this web site.
