WIND CAVE HISTORIC PARK IS WITHIN THE SOUTH DAKOTA GRASSLANDS WHERE THE BUFFALO ROAM AND WHERE THE ELK THRIVE. THEY GIVE YOU KNEE PADS AND YOU CLIMB THROUGH THE CAVE WITH A CANDLE LIGHT AND IN THE MIDDLE THE GUIDE HAS YOU BLOW IT OUT. AND THEY HAVE YOU THINK HOW ISOLATED YOU ARE WITHOUT LIGHT. IT IS KIND OF SCARY. THEN THEY LIGHT YOUR CANDLE AGAIN. THE TRIP LASTS ABOUT 1 1/2 HOURS. MY SON HAS GONE ON THIS TOUR AS WELL - HE LOVES CAVES!
THEY SHOW YOU WHERE SOME OF THE PREHISTORIC ANIMALS USED TO LIVE IN THE CAVE. THEY TEACH YOU THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STALAGTITES AND STALAGMITES. THE GUIDES ARE GREAT AND LOVE THEIR UNDERGROUND JOB!
