I'd like to poll the CaveTex-ers here as to their opinion and the
merits of Grutas de Palmito versus Carlsbad Caverns, i.e,. size of
the rooms, formations, ease of getting there, and the all-around
"Wow!" factor, etc.
In other words, how do they compare and contrast?
I think Carlsbad is probably higher on the wow! factor (and
better lit), but it's a commercial cave in a National Park, so unless
you get on a work trip and off the tourist trail, you can't really
experience it like you can Palmito. Of course Carlsbad is easier to
get to, but that also takes some of the fun out of it. :-) In
Palmito you can basically do what you like (please cave
responsibly!), so from a caver's perspective it is a more interesting
experience.
My two cents.
