Tour of Jewel Cave, SD

Booked a ticket for an early morning Scenic Tour at the Jewel Cave National Park. This was an interesting place, not much to see on the outside, just the small visitor center with some exhibits. The Park itself was the underground cave system and it was huge, with 220 miles of mapped caves with a lot of area unmapped. They warned us that the scenic tour can be strenuous, with 734 stairs, took 90 minutes. We took an elevator down to the starting point. The ranger led tour was really interesting and informative; below are some photos of the cave.
