BLANCHARD SPRINGS CAVERNS — On the parking lot at Blanchard Springs Caverns, 230 feet overhead, the temperature on a sultry summer afternoon hovers in the mid-90s, Jack Schnedler writes in Thursday's Arkansas Weekend section.
Down below, in the Cathedral Room of this spectacular Stone County cave complex, it’s 58 degrees. It’ll still be 58 degrees in December during the popular “Caroling in the Caverns” concerts. In this underground oasis, it’s an identical 58 degrees every day of the year. Thanks to humidity near 100 percent, there’s no real need for a jacket or sweater.
