Fantastic Caverns, Springfield, Missouri

[@JWimpy]

Notice the well casing that was accidentally drilled through the cave ears ago. These cave tours always try to tell people it takes millions of years to create stalagtites. But there are formations around the well pipe.

[@ronechols]

Still have my group photo from my visit back in 1970. I was 11 years old at the time.

[@samdiamond7642]

[@bent540]

Wouldn't want to be in there during an earthquake. Loving your trip videos. Keep them coming.

[@elwynsmith5092]

WOW great video-I felt like I was riding along with you and even felt myself ducking down in the low spots-hahaha ! !

[@donaldshulman6771]

Adam/Abby - I can see how much you are enjoying your trip. I too am enjoying the trip. The cave tour was lots of fun.

[@toolbox-gua]

We must thank you for doing "whatever it takes" to show and share with us such beautiful places. Cavers is way to difficult to show on video, but you guys left on us a desire to visit such places. Keep on going, safe and enjoy.

[@philparker1666]

I must add my thanks from the UK, you have a truly amazing country, thanks for sharing and showing me so much 👍🇺🇲🇬🇧

[@josephcitizen4195]

I ducked my head when we went into the cavern. haha.

[@richbrannon5562]

My wife and I went there about 20 years ago, watching your video was a nice trip down memory lane. Thank You

[@abbieross4965]

Arkansas has a cave Blanchard Springs walking tour beautiful too. Ozarks are amazing. Thanks for the video.

Beautiful place. Visited it many years ago.

[@ianlangley987]

Well done with some good shots. I went through theses caverns back in 2018 during our travels on R66. It certainly was very well done and we enjoyed it just as you did. Cheers Ian langley New Zealand

[@RobertKohut]

Incredible...:-)

[@davidcraven277]

Years ago we did the Merrimac cave which is a walking tour then in southern Ohio we slept in a cave a wonderful experience a must do

[@JohnBlakx4]

Welcome to Springfield. Don’t forget to go to the Granddaddy of all outdoor stores. Bass Pro Shops, where it all started, as a stand alone store and Wonder of Wildlife.

[@RobertPerrigoOkiechopper]

I cannot find Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium video you posted, you are now in my hometown where I spent the first 22 years of my life, I was born there in 1953 and left in 1975 for Oklahoma City, now you see my old stomping grounds. I wish I could visit just one more time.

[@philparker1666]

Thanks to you both for taking us all along on your travels, great video, you truly have an amazing country, I hope to visit one day 👍🇺🇲🇬🇧

[@beverlymurray6554]

[@lancetheman28]

We were there today, they have added lots more by the statue of the dog

[@daviddavis703]

Truly enjoyed your adventure as I grew up in Kansas city and made the cave tour when I was a kid. Do I see Kansas City on the 2021 bug haul? Safe travels!

[@paulchamberlain3359]

Well worth the trip very nice cave

[@mylovejayne]

You should visit Kansas City for bbq, also in the Ozark area a really cool cave to see is Bridal cave!

[@katelyntharby304]

Love this! Totally going to do this tour! What did Abby buy???

[@jjburkk]

Hey guys! Haven't talked to ya since you were in Colorado. Looks like you're doing good. Great weather for a road trip. We are heading back to Colorado again next month. Thanks for the videos! Take care and have fun!

[@johnfoster6194]

If you haven't been to Virginia, you should check out Luray caverns and Shenandoah caverns. I also love caves, first cave visited as a child was Mammoth cave in Kentucky.

[@bohhica1]

Great place .

[@jrcordero8194]

If you’re ever in New Mexico go see the Carlsbad caverns!

[@arminth]

Fantanstic! ;)

[@CharleyGeorge]

I invote you two to the Islands in Lake Erie. They have places for campers and such. There are caves and much more to do.

[@teambigv]

Gotta go to Branson sometime ABOMB they have a KOA close to a lot of attractions. Also Branson is just a little over an hour away from White River State Park.

[@mannys9130]

Very cool! Here in Southern Arizona near me, we have Collosal Cave and Kartchner Caverns. Beautiful caves. Collosal I've been to 2 or 3 times and it's way bigger than the guided footpath tour shows you. They have an advanced exploring tour with actual rock climbing and harness action that goes into many deeper chambers. No way in hell I'd do that though. 😸 Then there's the Good Enough Mine tour in Tombstone which is cool. The original silver ore mine that was what made Tombstone into a town to begin with. "You go looking for silver out there, all you're gonna find is your own tombstone."

[@bearsrodshop7067]

As Harold (ARW) & Steve Summers say,,,"Keep on Keeping On",,,this is awesome, and now to add to this place also to our Bucket List (@@),,Bear & Sammie,,,Our 65 CJ5 is cool,,but the Yellow pull tractor tops the list,,,thx for sharing.

[@jamesm.saddler899]

Hey Adam and Abby, I am so jealous of you guys, those caverns are amazing. I noticed the other day when you were at Riverside campground, Abby had on a cool Abom79 hat; where can I get one of those? "Very Cool" I hope you guys are enjoying life and having a fun time. Jim from Gainesville, Fl.

[@tonynagy2042]

That was Sofa King Cool....Really amazing in there.... imagine a person with claustrophobia ..screaming LOL .... Thats why she kept talking to keep their attention LOL.. T-Shirt Abby LOL..... Cheers Blessings....ps: Adam that was really cool!

[@assassinlexx1993]

Such a big cave and dry. No little guys hanging from the ceiling?

[@jobos98]

Awesome video

[@livingnightmare3878]

I went a couple days ago but im wondering if the crystals/stones and everything they sell is real like is from the cave or if its all fake?

[@neillsmart213]

This Kiwi went through there in 05/06 - got accused of flirting with the tour lady ... don't think it's the same one as you had - thanks for the memories :)

[@maryroddy9316]

I was ducking my head lol

[@duaneperry5337]

How long does the drive through take?

[@trevorcox3720]

45 min to an hour

[@duaneperry5337]

@trevorcox3720 I went a few days after I posted that question. It was an awesome tour. I enjoyed my guide allot as well.

[@emoshawn77]

Love the Ozarks! My dad took me there once defiantly a memorable time. The temperature in the cave was perfect. Thanks for that memory. Also, watch out it's tick country.

[@dannygoin6552]

👋👋👋👀🇺🇸

[@kaydog2008]

Meramec cavern isn't to far from there. 👈🤓👈

[@joeylawn36111]

The Jeep that was pulling you into the cave - what powered the engine? Natural Gas? Reason - a gasoline-powered vehicle puts out too much carbon monoxide for an enclosed space like that.

[@horstszibulski19]

And that CO will do also harm the cave itself, nice thing for the visitors that they drive you through but not for the cave and the stones in it.

[@mikerepmo]

PROPANE

[@joeylawn36111]

@@mikerepmo good point

[@leeklemetti1887]

The Fantastic Caverns tractor is what is known as a DOODLE BUG. It takes an automobile chassis and motor, shorten up the wheelbase. Next couple in two transmissions for low, low gearing. Double up the back wheels too. This was a poor farmer's tractor or just a fun ride.

[@truckguy6666]

so are they stalagMITES or stalagTITES???

[@KSMike1]

Both actually.

[@philparker1666]

From the UK I was always told to remember that mites go up and tights come down 😉

[@beaverbushcraft2962]

My luck a rock would fall on me.

[@number40Fan]

Not sure why I was ducking....

[@frednerk5959]

Remember Jurassic Park ? They went out on a Jeep tour.... Just saying!

[@sandrahoffman1958]

THE worst cavern in Missouri. Outside grounds are great but what a disappointment inside the caverns!

[@mikerepmo]

You're lame. The caverns are beautiful

[@leebarnhart831]

You could not drag me in there with a team of horses. Claustrophobia! Really can’t even watch this..

[@MrJansenmike]

Salt Peter = wet noodle

[@jdmccorful]

Interesting adventure, thanks.
