I know, I kept wanting to yell “OMG LAVA USED TO RUN THROUGH HERE!” It was beyond cool.

This is so neat! I bet your kids were just absolutely blown away by the size and how it was formed.

Hiking in an underground lava tube is definitely not life as usual. Cheers to more adventures, Hillary!

Ah! I just heard about Ape Caves on Mt St Helens, and I want to do that in the next month. It looks amazing!

Yes, it was a bit spooky—especially when we turned off all our flashlights just to experience total darkness.

HA! Different strokes, for sure! My kids were enthusiastic – until they weren’t. We just went as far as they were willing and then turned around. We’ll have to go back when they’re bigger. 🙂

It totally was! It was unlike anything my kids and I have ever done.

You’re the first person I’ve talked to who has done this cave – I think it’s relatively unknown, even among Oregonians. That’s cool you did it as a kid!
