You step off an air-conditioned minivan into humid understory light; palms brush your arms, and the Caves Branch River calls you forward, its surface daring you to float into shadow. Guides fit you with a tube and headlamp, and the group sets off on a short rainforest hike to the limestone mouth where the river slips beneath rock. For the next several hours the current becomes your route through low-ceiling tunnels and sudden skylight caverns, where stalactites drip slow as clockwork and crystalline flowstone glints in headlamp beams.
