Inner Space Caverns Georgetown, TX just north of Austin. Not your ordinary cave tour. Tony and Wendy were our guides in this physically challenging yet amazing experience. The shirts are dirty for a reason. We never expected to squeeze thru some of the holes and crevices we encountered in the three hours we were underground. Most of the time was spent on hands and knee or elbows and knee over dirt, mud or rock. In addition to the standard formations of stalagtites, stalagmites, draperies, cave bacon and soda straws we saw coral, rimstone pools and helictites. This area used to be a sea bed thus the coral. Helictites are similar to stalagtites and stalagmites but they seem to defy gravity and grow horizontal to the ground. There were even bones of prehistoric creatures such as mammoth and sabertooth tigers.
