Three Cavern Pictures

Limestone caverns are natural subterranean runway voids which have been selectively formed below upland areas at one or more levels in limestone strata. Fundamentally they are forms resulting from water drainage through limestone beneath the surface. They had their origin in the insidious percolatio...
