Wind Cave National Park

While we were in the area, we decided to visit Wind Cave. It was a  warm day so I was dressed in shorts and sandals, not your normal cave attire.  After Dave bought the tickets we noticed that the temperature in the cave was 47 - 53.  I quickly went to the gift shop to buy the only thing available - a blue sweatshirt.  Dave decided he would rather be cold than wear fashionable matching outfits.










This is the only natural entrance to this cave.  It's about the size of a beach ball.  Thank goodness the Park Department saw fit to add a revolving door.















This cave was very deep and narrow - nothing like the other caves we have visited.  My toes were almost frost bitten by the end of the tour but the biggest surprise was the elevator to the top.

 







 Something different in the wildlife department - donkeys.
