Today we went to Carlsbad Cavern. We have been here before. The cavern is part of Carlsbad Cavern National Park and we have a Golden Age Passport for all National Parks which allows us to get in free so we figured we just as well see it again. The tour we went on, The Big Room, is a self guided tour, about a mile long and takes about 1.5 hours. This one big room covers 14 acres. There is one other self guided tour and 6 guided tours into different areas of the cavern. Plus, there are 6 more guided tours into other parts of the cavern which are more strenuous and longer tours.
