Plop a canoe in at the top and float down. If there's an "Eden" in America, it's that valley. Get out at points and go see the three main cavern systems - Luray, Skyline (with their crystal flowers grown in vacuum) and Endless.
That's going on the bucket list. You mean to say the caverns really are accessible by canoe? How cool is that .. but is it safe? I mean do I need to be a highly accomplished boater or is it a floating party? Also, what is the likelihood of running into toothless good ole boys with a taste for fudge packing? (I'm looking at you, Rhythm.)
