First is the worst, second is the best, and jewelcavenps is the third longest cave in the world.🎖️ 

Jewel Cave in South Dakota, is named for its many rooms and passages covered with jewel-like crystals that sparkle like gems when illuminated. 💎 This underground spectacle is created by the cave’s abundant formations, the calcite crystals. 

Happy 115th Anniversary!
