Bonnechere Caves

We opted for one day-trip away from the cabin, to the nearby Bonnechere Caves between Douglas and Eganville. The Caves flank the Bonnechere River, and run about 100 feet underground into limestone and water.

The main passages are at least dimly lit and laid out with boardwalks. From there you can (and we did!) venture down side tunnels, some of them becoming quite low and narrow, to become a true spelunker. Adding to the experience were stalactites, stalagmites, and a few sleepy bats.

Well worth a visit if you're ever in the area!

Any fat man's misery as with the Collingwood Scenic Caves? I'm afraid that our group turned back when we went recently to be greeted by an elderly man about to enter.
"Afraid?" he asked.
"No. Fat," I replied.
He glanced down at his belly.
"That's right," I told him. "Better suck it up, baby."

hello there and thank you for your information – I have ԁеfinitely picked up anythіng nеω fгоm right hеrе.
I did however expertiѕe some techniсal issues using this site, as I eхpеrienced to reloаԁ thе websitе
many times pгevious to Ι сοuld get it to lоaԁ ρropеrly.
I had been wondering if your hoѕting іs OК?

Not that I'm complaining, but slow loading instances times will sometimes affect your placement in google and can damage your high quality score if advertising and marketing with Adwords. Anyway I'm adding this RSS to my email and could lоok out for
much more of your respесtive fascіnating content.
Ensure thаt yоu upԁate thіs again νery sоon.
