We were going to stay for the flight of the bats out of the cavern at 8 pm, but decided that Texas bats were quite enough. We decided to go to Sitting Bull Water Falls in Lincoln National Forrest, but found out,part of the way there, that the forrest was closed to due severe forrest fire hazard.

From the Heat of Texas to the cold of Carlsbad Caverns
Well, now we are in New Mexico and spent a wonderful full day at Carlsbad Caverns where the temperature on the outside was 100 degrees and on the inside was 56 degrees. We went down and down and down, over 800 feet in the biggest, deepest cave we have ever been in. It went on and on and on. And. after walking down and down and down for over an hour, we had the luxury of taking an elevator back up which was the tallest elevator in the country when it was built in the '50's. We broke the experience in two, first the Natural entrance, then back up for lunch and a driving loop into the surrounding canyons, thenb ack down for the Big room.
