Comments:	Ohio Caverns is a show cave located 30 miles from Dayton, Ohio near West Liberty, in Salem Township, Champaign Count. A popular tourist destination and member of the National Caving Association, it is the largest of all the cave systems in Ohio and contains many crystal formations. Approximately 90% of its stalactite and stalagmite formations are still active. The cavern system was originally an aquifer, holding an underground river of melted glacier water. This river eventually receded to lower levels of the ground and is now unseen. <p> While driving to the location - keep driving (feels like forever) and marked better as you get closer.
