Some cave passages are very humid because they do not have good ventilation. These wet caves cannot release their moisture making them very humid.

Is Laural caverns airy?

I have never visited Laurel Caverns, but a quick look at its advertising web-site shows it to have large passages, so by experience of caves generally, yes it is airy. The air in it may seem still, but is probably moving very gently. Most caves have their own, natural ventilation - as well as keeping the air in show-caves fresh, draughts are used by cavers as hints that further passages lie beyond the source of the draught. Sufferers from hay-fever may find relief during their time visiting a cave, depending on how the cave ventilates itself, the cooler, humid air may hold little pollen. I've known it work for me. I was interested to see the cave is closed from November to April inclusive to protect the bats hibernating in it. Once out of hibernation the animals depart, probably to other, slightly warmer, caves more suitable as roosts and nurseries. This is characteristic bat behaviour through the seasons. So visit Laurel Caverns and enjoy it!


Are caves humid?

Usually, but the humidity varies considerably according to the presence or absence of water (still or streams), air temperature and pressure, and natural ventilation. I have found very rapid relief from hay-fever when entering a cave thatswallows a stream, having walked very feverishly to it across meadows, and I ascribe this to a combination of high humidity and modest temperatureas well as lack of pollen in the cave's air.

How big is mammoth caves landforms?

That's a very vague question so not very meaningful. Do you mean the cave's length? That, with its conjoined Flint Ridge Cave, totals over 360miles of surveyed passages (I've seen differing distances quoted, from 360 to 390 depending on the source). Do you mean the sizes of its major chambers or formations? You'd have to read detailed descriptions & surveys in the speleological literature for that _ the show-cave publications might have some information. Do you mean the landforms of the National Park in which the cave lies? Study a topographical map.

What is mammoth cave?

Mammoth Cave is a cave in Kentucky that is underground and is under a forest. Pioneers found Mammoth cave in the early 1700s. Some of the events that happen there is Wildflower Weekend and National Juniur Ranger day in April and The Cave Sing in December.I have not been there but I hope I do some day because Mammoth Cave (in my research) seems to be a very nice place to be! Mammoth Cave is located in Cave City, Kentucky. It got its name because it is so big, and the Mammoth was also very big. +++ Caves ARE underground - by definition! Actually the locals "found" it thousands of years ago, and used it as a dwelling etc. Big: though not especially deep at about 380 feet, the entire system has somewhere over 350 miles of surveyed passages, making it the world's longest. It and its location are now a National Park, I believe.
