Not much but here's how it got its name! A span of rock over the entrance to the cave. Probably once a room, it has now almost totally collapsed. | The entrance is right to the left in the hole. | When I went though this cave (about 30 years ago) it was lead by a guide. Now stationed in every main area, is a person telling you some facts about that area. |

The tour is self guided... just follow the sidewalk. Cost for one adult - $18.95! There was another guided tour that takes you to another part of the cave for the same price, or you could go wild caving with them for 2 1/2 hours for $100!! Save your money... come caving with C.O.G. ... it's free and we'll put you to work! | The way the rest of the cave was actually discovered back in the early 1960's...past a racoon nest and then this small tunnel. It's small here and VERY TIGHT at the end 120 feet down the tunnel. | After walking through blasted tunnel and stairs, you finally got to where the first explorers came into the cave. |

It is limestone and located on a Texas fault-line so good access from the surface for moisture. | Some formations are dry but many are still active in the cave. | Holy cow... it was "Officially" 91 degrees in the cave with 98% humidity!! You sweat just breathing!!! |
