Jenolan Caves Survived Recent Storms
|
Powerful Forces of Nature Have Been at Work
It was business as usual throughout the recent floods.
However, carried by rushing water, logs and boulders crashed through the hugh Devil's Coach House cave, tearing out short sections of handrailing and lighting. All caves have now reopened. Tonnes of gravel washed out into the Blue Lake, creating a sand bar. One of the lovliest features of the Orient Cave, the 'Crystal Basin', is now full of water, as is the Imperial Cave's dramatic formation know as the 'Crystal Cities'. Come quickly if you want to see these rare phenomena. www.facebook.com/#!/JenolanCaves?fref=ts

It's 1930s America. Prohibition is in full swing and bootlegging gangsters have taken the law into their own hands.

This 'Whodunit' is a variation on the traditional Murder Mystery. Follow the action, as it moves from the vast Cathedral Chamber to the skeletal remains in – where else – but the Bone Chamber! There are enough twists and turns to confuse all but the most dedicated sleuths. www.jenolancaves.org.au/event.asp?pid=74&id=4&sdid=21
