Independence, Missouri Caves

You will be fine. just go slow and look around before you do anything and GOAL
Just did them yesterday. Tight!!!
Slow and steady is the game. Nobody acts impatient in there that I could tell.
Where have you been, Gladhand? I posted this a bit over a year ago: Colossal Cave Driving.
Yes, it's tight. But the thing that got me was you can't tell North from South. You just drive in tunnels that look alike. You should enjoy it.
I heard most of the trucks that enter those caves either get stuck and are still there to this day or the cave collapses in on them and they're buried there. I can't verify that though.
You'll be totally fine. It's a super cool experience. Quite surreal being in there.
Take pictures!

I went to americold a couple years ago. Was weird for sure. But after I got out thought it was pretty cool. Previous advice given is all you need. Enjoy
Wasn't nearly as bad as I thought. Took me a bit to get in but I didn't hit anything. Thankfully a guy spotted me.

Anyone been to the underground caves in independence? Have to go to them for General Mills tomorrow. A little nervous but after breaking my fears of the north east I am ready to conquer my fear of the caves.
