Silver Dollar City evolved around the entrance to the limestone cave that features formations that are still alive and growing! On the tour, guests travel 300 feet below the surface and enter the Cathedral Room, the largest cave entrance room in the United States. Upon completing the tour nearly 500 feet below the surface, a unique cable train takes visitors up the half-mile (0.8 km), 1070 foot (326 m) climb back to the surface.

That girl is one really excellent docent :) Brian seems pretty cool too, effected "cowboy" walk and all. I've got to get there! Great guides. They're easily 90% of the experience, and these guys really do a terrific job. As a Floridian, I'm very familiar with them. Pretty cool people, when you catch them off-duty (and sober). Get 'em drunk, and you'll hear just how horrible most people are. I remember going to Mammoth Cave in KY when I was a kid. The docent was pretty funny: "It's so quiet in here, you can hear a pin drop. (drops a pin, maybe, nobody hears it. Stamps his foot) Did you hear _that?_" Ah, these guys don't get paid what they're worth. Things like this are so educational, for but me, in kind of a bad way. Recall the Upper Big Bridge Mine disaster. Stuff like that scares the crap out of me, so _this,_ to me, would be a thrill ride. What an amazingly, dazzlingly beautiful place, though. These days, I'd rather go on one of those conceptual Centrifugal Brain Project (look it up) rides on KZbin, than go through this.

The thing he said about not touching the "living" rock at the end is actually a state law in Texas. After seeing caves like Marvel Cave, Cave of the Winds, Carlsbad Caverns and a couple of completely dead caves up north, Inner Space Caverns is the only big, guided tour cave that I have seen that is mostly still "alive".. untouched by human hands.

It would compromise the cave's infrastructure, causing it to practically fall apart. Someone asked this on the tour i was on the other day, that's what the tour guide said.
