Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico - Carlsbad Caverns HD (2016)
Carlsbad Caverns National Park is a United States National Park in the Guadalupe Mountains of southeastern New Mexico. The primary attraction of the park is the show cave, Carlsbad Cavern. Carlsbad Caverns National Park is open every day of the year except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. Visitors to the cave can hike in on their own via the natural entrance or take an elevator from the visitor center.
The park entrance is located on US Highway 62/180, approximately 18 miles (29 km) southwest of Carlsbad, New Mexico. Carlsbad Caverns National Park participates in the Junior Ranger Program. The park has two entries on the National Register of Historic Places: The Caverns Historic District and the Rattlesnake Springs Historic District. Approximately two thirds of the park has been set aside as a wilderness area, helping to ensure no future changes will be made to the habitat.
Carlsbad Cavern includes a large cave chamber, (The Big Room), a natural limestone chamber almost 4,000 feet (1,220 m) long, 625 feet (191 m) wide, and 255 feet (78 m) high at the highest point. It is the fifth largest chamber in North America and the twenty-eighth largest in the world.
Travel Guide New Mexico tm Carlsbad Caverns, Carlsbad, New Mexico
Take a turn in the comfortable 56°F climate and behold Carlsbad Caverns' stunning formations borne out of the earth's own vibrant imagination. The creation of the caves began some 250 million years ago, when the region was part of a vast inland sea. The caves weren't occupied until 1,000 years ago, when paleo-Indians first sought refuge there. Visitors today can enjoy self-guided or guided tours, back country explorations, camping and more.
The park contains more than 100 known caves, including Lechuguilla Cave—the nation's deepest (1,567 feet) and third longest limestone cave. Don't miss The Big Room; it's the size of eight football fields combined. There are self-guided and ranger-guided tours. Reservations are recommended for Kings Palace, Left Hand Tunnel, Slaughter Canyon Cave, Lower Cave, Spider Cave, and Hall of the White Giant tours.
Expect ladder climbs, pool crossings, tight crawls and climbing. Oh, and bats - at dusk between May and October, you can witness 400,000 Mexican freetaile bats take to the night!

“Don’t come to New Mexico in March…it’s the worst time of year here!” - A New Mexico resident
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ Click Show More ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
If only we had known this before getting to New Mexico in March, perhaps our expectations would have been less. Neither of us had even been to this state, so we really had no idea what to expect. And although we had some good times, it is not one of our favorite states. (Primarily because we are not used to dry, flat, open spaces with 50+ mph winds) ???? We stayed in two different locations, while in New Mexico. Carlsbad and Las Cruces. Read the full blog post (linked below) for more!

Carlsbad Caverns: the main attraction
There are caves and then there are Caverns. Carlsbad is definitely a Caverns class attraction.
There is so much to see and do here that sets New Mexicos Carlsbad apart from other cave attractions that we couldnt possibly list everything in one teaser video like this.
Adventurer Clint Pollock delivers the been-there-done-that experience in this short video featuring Ranger Geologist Paul Burger as they explore and expose Carlsbads Big Room, the 8 acre sized, stalagmite filled room that is 750 feet below ground, the bat flight of thousands of bats every night and, the 1 ¼ mile main entrance switchback trail that follows the original explorers path as they discovered this underground wonder.
Carlsbad is certainly for everyone with its updated elevator system that accommodates anyone wanting to see its secrets revealed. So, bring a flashlight, leave the baby stroller in the car and follow a self guided tour or hook up with one of the ranger guided tours to explore Carlsbad Caverns.
Exploring Carlsbad Caverns: The Natural Entrance & Big Room Tours
On this Airstream Life vLog, we leave our awesome cow filled boondocking spot to drive over to Carlsbad Caverns National Park. We take you with us as we explore the caverns. Starting with the Natural Entrance, the Green Room, and more before making it down 750 feet to the elevators and the Big Room. The whole cavern is absolutely spectacular. Words, photography, and video just don't do it justice so we highly recommend coming yourself.
Some tips for exploring Carlsbad Caverns include:
1) Wear good shoes
2) There are handicap accessible areas that are gorgeous!
3) Do the Natural Entrance is you can
4) Don't use a flash! It will saturate all your photos. Instead hold your camera as still as possible.
Exploring Carlsbad Caverns was one of the top things we have ever done while full-time traveling in our RV. We highly recommend it!
Stay tuned for a windy but beautiful hike in the nearby Guadalupe Mountains on the next video.

Carlsbad Caverns- left us amazed
We visited Carlsbad Caverns National Park in New Mexico over Spring Break and it was so amazing it is hard to describe. This video tries to capture some of the highlights, but it doesn't do justice to seeing it with your own eyes. BTW- don't go late in the day as after 3:00pm the line for the elevator back to the top starts to get long and soon after that they close the gates for the walk out option and everyone needs to take the elevator to get back out.

Carlsbad Caverns took us over 1,000 feet underground and our cameras simply couldn't capture the beauty that we saw there. You'll just have to go visit it in person one day to get the full effect :-)
We also go to see El Capitan in Guadalupe Mountains National Park on our way down to the salt flats that were just south of the two national parks.
We hope you enjoy the journey!
