In the US, today is National Junior Ranger Day! I love 🥰 the National Park Service Junior Ranger Program & have earned 7 Junior Ranger badges including a Virtual Junior Ranger badge from Yosemite! The Junior Ranger program offers in-person as well as online activities for Junior Rangers of all ages! https://www.nps.gov/subjects/npscelebrates/national-junior-ranger-day.htm

Même les cavernes n'échappent pas au gigantisme aux #USA ! Ici, les Carlsbad Caverns NP, d'immenses grandes grottes pouvant abriter plusieurs terrains de foot, avec d'énormes stalagmites et stalactites. Il y a même un trou s'appelant le "trou sans fond" (bottomless pitt) ! 😄 D'ailleurs, elles n'ont toujours pas fini d'être explorées !

I did this painting as a tribute to one of my favorite places #carlsbadcaverns and the man who helped explore and make the caverns famous, Jim White. I call it "The Cowboy and the Cave". He was only 16 years old when he started exploring it. It would make a great movie. #carlsbadcavernsnationalpark #jimwhite #westernart #artist #cowboys

^@carlsbadcavernsnps: "Hey Bob, SLOW DOWN!"
Wildlife encounters at Carlsbad Caverns NP are often unexpected. While driving our park roads, use caution and slow down, especially at times when visibility is reduced. Observe the posted speed limits in the park and watch out for wildlife alongside or crossing the road.
