The logomites or popcorn stalagmites this explorer sits near are hollow and sometimes grow taller than a person.
Immerse yourself in one of the longest caves in the world. With over 220 miles of mapped and surveyed passages, this underground wilderness appeals to human curiosity. Its splendor is revealed through fragile formations and glimpses of brilliant color. Its maze of passages lures explorers, and its scientific wealth remains a mystery. This resource is truly a jewel in the National Park Service.
Jewel Cave National Monument will release our Draft Accessibility Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan on Friday, June 7. As part of the planning process, the National Park Service is seeking public comment on the draft plan. Your participation is important to our planning process.
