One good cave deserves another.
Not really knowing what to expect, the next day we head over to Colossal Caverns.
If you were wondering why 2 cavers, Gary Tenen and Randy Tufts decided to keep Kartchner Caverns a secret for 14 years (from 1974), you’re about to find out.
Colossal Caverns aren’t as big as Kartchner Caverns, but have a unique and interesting History. And other things …
We came away with so many photos from around there that I’ll need to do this in 2 or 3 Parts.

It must be something about desert terrain. Israel has limestone caves running for many miles under the desert . They are not as decorative as those in the southwest seem to be, but they are almost like another, subterranean world.
I’m guessing that only a small percentage of existing caverns here have been discovered. A wondrous inner universe awaits.
