Joe Spins the Globe | Carlsbad Caverns - A stunning, HUGE cave in New Mexico @JoeSpinstheGlobe | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 19 hours ago.
Finally getting across Texas, I couldn't wait to explore these caverns. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I was stunned at the size and depth of the main cave. I ended up spending way more time here than I planned, but it was 100% worth it.
*Note: Come early to the park to get your ticket, as they are limited and can sell out as early as an hour after opening. Tickets are issued with tour times of every half hour; tours are self-guided.
As of August 2020, COVID-19 restrictions mean that you must descend into the cave on foot and ascend by elevator. There is no option to descend by elevator.
