Really spectacular arch formation on easy trail to reach it. Area is well maintained with plenty of parking at trail head. It’s a little off the beaten path as you head past bear creek horse camp to get there, but gravel road is well maintained. Make time to find this, well worth it.

This is a "new" cave where the formation is young. The tour is far less physically demanding since you're seated in a boat for most of it. The blue hole is unique to any cave tour I've taken and they spin great local lore as part of the tour. Run by a non profit- they go into a lot of the science too. Great for the young, old, or in between.
