Description
A day visit to Barton Creek Cave is a very popular excursion and involves a canoe or tube float through the cave for about 1mi/1.6km. About 28 human skeletons were found in the cave, and large potted jars and ledges built above the riverbank suggest the site was an important ritual center. Interesting cave formations are observed and some remaining artifacts can be seen.
