- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- Our camper van adventure continues at Cave-In-Rock State Park, a unique place along the bank of the Ohio river on the outskirts of the Shawnee National Forest. We explore this huge cave, which is on the Illinois and Kentucky border and it’s quite a sight to see! Only an hour away from our previous adventure at the Garden of the Gods, this giant cave has ceilings around fifty feet high. Tune in until the end for a nerve-wracking trip where we board our tiny home on wheels on a ferry to cross the Ohio River. We had a lot of fun filming this episode and we hope you enjoy!

CAVE-IN-ROCK State Park in Illinois | Shawnee National Forest
Recorded: May 2022
We really enjoyed visiting this cave - what a different experience! Thanks to each of you from the bottom of our hearts for watching and being a part of our adventures!
I absolutely love the part where you cut away and showed the research that you did on the cave graffiti! That saves me a step because I was about to look it up myself lol 😆
Keep up the great work!
😂 We were so curious we figured it would help to do it that way. Thanks so much for the feedback Kendra! We'll have to do that again in the future when we have something to look up. Thanks so much for being here with us! 💓
Hi Paul and Sarah, amazing exploration and even more fun because you had the cave to yourself. Great place to visit! Can't wait for the next one.
Anne & Eric
Thank you so much Anne & Eric! It's amazing having a place all to yourself to explore. Some places we have to visit on weekdays or really early in the morning to even have a chance to be alone. So great to hear from you guys! 💓
Really enjoyed your video! Thank you for taking me along with you on your awesome travels! These places I'll only get to see on your videos.
Of course Carlavision! It's so fun armchair traveling to places to see what the world has to offer. We don't have time to visit it all but it's fun to experience places like this easily. Thanks for watching!
@@PSAdventures you're welcome!
I grew up in cave-in-rock...LOL
Really? Did you visit it when you were young? It's a cool area to explore and we loved taking the ferry across the river. 😊
Found this channel through your fermentation channel, and this channel is so interesting. Can’t wait to see more of your videos 💕
That's so amazing Rita! We didn't think anyone would be following from BOTH channels. Wow! We always have a lot going on so we bounce back and forth creating videos for both. We're so happy you're enjoying! 💓
I'VE BEEN TO CAVE IN ROCK STATE PARK IT WAS SO AWESOME
That's so cool! It's great to hear that you've been to this park! Did you take the ferry too?
Fun video. A friend of mines son is from there and named Boston Corbett Cole.
Nice! He's in an area that has a lot to do. It was a lot of fun riding the ferry across the river to Kentucky. Very cool spot to explore. 😊
Great video showing close to where I live in Kentucky. Just a hop skip n a jump 🤪☺️
Thanks so much for the love! It was a cool place to visit and first time we ever drove the van over a river on a ferry!
I went the beginning of August and it was a great experience, it’s just, there were so many dead fish in the water and on the shore, it was terrible. But the cave was awesome.
We're so glad to hear you enjoyed it! 😄 Not so cool about the dead fish though. Wonder why that seems to happen. We found the same thing in Tennessee one time along one of the lakes. Lots of big stinky fish everywhere...
My parents were both from there. As a kid, my dad lived in a house that was right at the. Entrance. Lots of good memories there growing up. My dad had hundreds of arrowheads he collected from the bluff as a child.my wife n kids are going there this comming sat. My dad’s buried up off Rt.1 n my mom lives over in Harrisburg
What a unique backdrop for your childhood. 🥰 It was such a lovely area, so thank you for sharing your hometown with us! We hope your family had a great visit on your recent trip!
Omg !! Super awesome vídeo and love the place and your ride in a ferry 😎👍🏻 my friend said will be nice a close caption in Spanish 😃 She likes your video 😍
We're so happy you enjoyed the adventure Maria! Thank you so much for the suggestion on the closed captions in Spanish! We thought it automatically translated it but we'll have to look into that. Thanks for watching!
Cool place!! I’ve visited quite a few caves over the last decade. Pretty cool being right on the river
Wow that's so cool! Just seeing this one makes us wonder what a lot of other ones look like. A long time ago we had visited Meramec Caverns in Missouri and were blown away by how dark it can get when you're underground. Do you have any favorite that are must-see? Thanks for the comment!
@@PSAdventures There’s a lot I can mention. Lost Sea in Sweetwater, TN is a great one. It’s an underground lake as well. Mammoth Cave NP is great. I love Florida Caverns as well because those types of caverns are a very unique treasure in Florida. Squire Boone Caverns in Indiana is very nice. They’ll all nice, but each one is unique.
There are 45,000 caves in the US, not including Alaska.
Me and the ol lady pumped it up in that cave . Seen it million times from the river boat . im a river boat captain
Very interesting. 😂😂😂 Thanks for sharing! (and the laugh)
Amazing 🙋
It really was! So many incredible places to see in this beautiful world. Thanks for watching Junaid!
Verrry interesting.
Definitely! It's so cool to explore large caves and even more interesting when they're right on the bank of a river. So different! Thanks for watching! 😊
Hey guys new to your channel and so far we love it! You guys rock! Love all the videos of Florida and love your van too! Keep it going g and we'll be tuning in 🙂
Thanks so much you guys!! We're happy you found us. We're based in Florida so we're always exploring in our home state. Happy adventuring! 💓
Why didn’t you bring up the history of that cave it’s good to know that way you get the feel for the place
Hmm. We actually did bring up the history of the cave. We zoomed out and did a search on it. 😊
How do you like All the Indian Names of places in Illinois?🏹 I know there are Many across the Nation. I Appreciate all of them, but I am Most Familiar with those in Illinois🌟 Such a Beautiful Adventure😎
It's so interesting to see all the Indian names! It makes sense though being in the flatlands where they must have lived. There's so much history in this country with so many stories. Thanks for pointing that out and we're so happy you loved the video! 💓
There in the '70's and don't remember the cave going back that far . . . ?
Wow, interesting! We wonder if the erosion has continued in the cave??
The place looks awesome! We just visited 2 different caves this summer. One of the caves was in Florida. I try not to think about being underground when going inside a cave lol. Swimming and boating in a cave is always fun. We have done both in the last year. Are you guys visiting Ruby Falls in Chattanooga? I don't like when there is graffiti in a cave except when it is really old. Dames caves have a lot of bad words printed all over. That is cool that the ferry is free. Great video!
Oh wow! We didn't realize there were any cool caves in Florida. We did go scuba diving one year in Devil's Den in Gainesville which felt very much like a big cave. No we're not making it to Ruby Falls on this trip. One day we'll get over there but we decided to do some more remote trails that had less people which you'll see in the next episode! Have fun on your travels and always great to hear from you! 😊
@@PSAdventures the Florida Caverns in Marianna, Fl. They are really cool. We just visted there and did 2 videos. Besides the cave they have a spring too.
Awesome! We'll definitely have to check it out. Thanks for the suggestion!
Mantle Rock Preserve
Is just a short drive from Cave in rock.
Thanks so much for the suggestion Bula! We'll have to look into it next time we're near there. Thanks for watching!
the floods is how they did it
That was so crazy to see that writing on the ceiling. It blew our minds that the water rose that high. Crazy! Thanks for the comment!
❤ 😃
💓💓💓
Use to go there when I lived in nearby Harrisburg. That whole area is God's country.
Sure you must've went to garden of the gods?
It's such a neat area - lots of unique landscapes. Yes! Garden of the Gods was awesome! (ruclips.net/video/p7nBsnqU0nw/видео.html)
Another fun video! I personally found it very scary!!! (; I prefer open spaces and lots of water! (: Still it was fun watching you guys experience it so I wouldn't have to! (;
It is so great how we can now research things we become curious about during our adventures!
Caves can be scary but are also pretty interesting wonders! We're happy you loved the video Freeman! Hope you're doing well!
@@PSAdventures Years ago I went with a group of friends to a 19th century fort and we climbed in to it through a narrow opening and went exploring - what we didn't know was that after awhile it became pitch black and eventually got so narrow we had to turn around and find our way back! (;
Oh wow!! That's scary! We have springs here where people have scuba dived down into the cave and was not able to find their way back. Scary stuff!
proposed to my wife there!
Oh my gosh, really?! That's awesome! Congratulations! 😍❤️
It certainly is man made. What it was? I don't know.
I'm sure the cave is natural for the most part but they've added a lot to it. Definitely a cool place to see if you're in the area!
@PS Adventures If you go again, see if you can find line markings, orange colorizatiion and get a sample.
It just looks so man made. Not natural. IMO
Too much facetime, otherwise interesting
We love talking to our peeps! 😆
Not as magical when you know all the things that went down in this cave.
I bet! It's a cool cave but has an a bit of ominous feeling being inside. I bet it would be so creepy at night! 😮🦇
@@PSAdventures look up the Harpe brothers and Ohio river pirates.
We'll check it out! Sounds a little crazy!
