One of the days was supposed to be full of rain. We did a short hike in the morning and then decided to go explore the Tuckaleechee caves in Townsend, Tennessee. These caves are located inside one of the Smoky Mountain ranges.
The caves are estimated to be 20 - 30 million years old, with an underground waterfall 210 feet tall.
The caverns also host a seismograph system monitored by the US Department of Defense and the Unites States Geological Survey.
It was a guided tour, and really worth seeing. It's a very popular spot to explore in Tennessee, and of course the gift shop has rock candy. Definitely a spot worth stopping to see.
