These are not new to me. I saw pictures of these crystals several years ago in one of those ‘newspapers’ that are on display in grocery store shopping check-out lines (the National Inquirer or, the Star–one of those).

I’ve actually never seen these pictures before, but now I’m going to look for them. It must be awe-inspiring to be in a cave like that. It’s a classic example of how amazing things can happen in just the right conditions. That and an 80′s sci-fi movie for some reason.

As a caver it makes me want to go caving again. Many years ago I had the privilege to explore Crystal Cave in Kentucky with one of it’s original explorers. It’s a cave with two big attractions and it isn’t open to the public. 1st One: The walls are covered with incredible sheets of crystal formations that are dazzling. 2nd One: At the base of the entrance is the resting place of Floyd Collins, the most famous caver in history. He is entombed there in a coffin with a glass plate to view his face. The cave air has mumified his remains. It’s an experience that i won’t forget. Don’t know who Floyd Collins is? Read the book. It’s great! Trapped! the Story of Floyd Collins

I first saw the pics in an email at work a couple of weeks ago. Simply awsesome (really… I was filled with a sense of awe…)
