Tip for Other Campers:

Lots of fun exploring the caves. Bring flashlights. We wore our bike helmets but they do have some to use at the visitor's center. Good sturdy shoes also needed. They have caves with various difficulties. We didn't choose the ones we needed to crawl through.

The park is truly unique. The campground was perfect to operate for a couple of days. We camped at Lava Beds National Monument - Indian Wells Campground in a Truck Camper.

Not an "Oh Wow" park, but a very nice place to visit and hike if the weather is right. Although FCFS we were told it almost never gets full. We camped at Lava Beds National Monument - Indian Wells...

Tip for Other Campers:

Be at the Visitor Center (walking distance from the campground) as soon it opens if you wish to participate in a ranger-led FCFS cave tour. The tour when we were there filled as soon as the Visitor Center opened with day-trippers. Many caves are closed during the summer for nesting bats check before you go.
