Spruce Creek, Pennsylvania - Indian Caverns

This is one of the largest show caves in Pennsylvania, and it has Native American history (including a display of artifacts found in the cave) and considerable local folklore (like being used as a hideout by a "famous" bandit).

While there are some kitsch touches like a scene of plastic dinosaurs to demonstrate the age of the cave, and some goofy formations like "Shirley Temple's hair," there are also some nice examples of old formation, a huge sheet of flowstone, and a couple of fairly large rooms. They don't go overboard with the colored lighting, but there are one or two pretty silly effects.

It also has a room in which minerals in the ceiling glow in the dark. [Glenn Mulhern, 04/08/2007]

[RA: Silly effects -- always a good sign!]
