    I lived only 10 mins from there when I was a kid. Thanks for finally showing me the inside after all these years!

      It was a little nerve wracking at first, not knowing what to expect. But it stays the same temperature all year under there.

    I have delivered there a few times driving my 18 wheeler. It will test your backing skills to the dock. New drivers are totally intimidated. You can actually get lost in there if you don't pay attention to the signs.

    I layed block in a few of the different cave systems around KC. We worked in the new areas they were converting to warehouses and such. The walls and ceilings were freshly painted. Every morning there would be fresh dark spots on the ceiling with rocks laying under em painted white on one side. That got my attention. Lol

    I believe it is limestone. It has ventilation by 291 to circulation air. It's mainly a storage area for climate control needs.
