Coming from out of state I had forgotten about the time change so was too late for the last tour of the day. A ranger redirected me to the various displays, the theater, and a ranger presentation that was going to happen soon after I arrived. It was still a good experience without being able to actually explore the caverns.
Sincerely,
Carlsbad Caverns National Park
Deep beneath the Chihuahuan Desert in southern New Mexico is a labyrinth of more than 300 limestone caves, carved over 250 million years ago.
State(s): New Mexico
