Cedar Ridge Crystal Cave
This cave is one of the nicest show caves in TAG. The access is ridiculously easy and the cave is quite small. You are never more than a ten minute trip from the entrance from any point in the cave. Luckily the cave is securely gated. I have visited this cave twice and I got over one hundred photos the second time I visited. The photos featured here were taken by me unless otherwise noted.
Enjoy the photos of this most beautiful cave.

The gated entrance to Cedar Ridge Crystal Cave. The gate is cast iron with the lock on the inside. Kinda hard to open from the outside but that is how it's done. Kristen Bobo is the caver entering the gate.

Notice the long clusters of soda straws on the right of this boulder and wet, glassy drip formations on the left.
This is an area in the second major room of the cave. Notice the very long bacon strip formation to the left of the large stalactite. It has a beautiful ribbon quality to it.
Kristen smiles as she passes through a formation area.
Some really beautiful drip formations.
