You don't have to thrill at the pastime of spelunking to enjoy numerous fascinating cave formations. El Capitan Cave on Alaska's Prince of Wales Island, known as El Cap to its natives, is the largest known cave in Alaska, and is also the first cave in Southeast Alaska where fossil bones were discovered – dating back to over 12,000 years ago. El Capitan features the deepest limestone pit in the United States.

Alaska's Boardwalk Lodge guides will accompany you; however, caving exploration is led by a U.S. Forest Service employee. Tours must be arranged in advance of your stay, so be sure to alert your booking agent about your intended adventure. Experiencing the majesty and mystery of El Cap is worth the time and effort!
