Estimated to be around 30 million years old, the cave features guided boat tours and has been a popular tourist destination for nearly 150 years. Millions of people from around the world have visited the cave and its diverse wildlife park, which is home to animals such as bison, elk, deer, wild horses, donkeys, mountain lions, and wolves. The park also offers attractions like a maze, gemstone panning, picnic grounds, and off-road mountain tours.\n\nThe campbell family has been dedicated to preserving the property and its natural resources, supporting the cave's operations with as much as 11 million gallons of water per day.
