Special Considerations

Visitors should always have warm clothing, sturdy boots, gloves, and protective headgear available if they plan to visit the lava tube caves. Bumpcaps for caving are sold at the visitor center. Bike helmets also work well.

For your safety: Potential hazards in lava tubes are low ceilings, steep trails and stairways, and uneven footing. Carry more than one light source. Wear protective headgear. Notify a Ranger before exploring caves other than those listed in the brochure or if you plan to use your own lighting equipment. If you encounter bats, leave quietly and quickly and let a ranger know.

Rattlesnakes are found throughout the Monument. Children should be cautioned not to put their hands and feet in places they cannot see.

Restrictions

• Do not take any artifacts or geologic specimens from the park.
• Food, tobacco products, and pets are not allowed in the caves.
