—> PLEASE JOIN ME IN WELCOMING Interpretive Naturalist Ellen Gunnufson from Forestville Mystery Cave State Park, our very own regional Driftless cave wonderland in Spring Valley, MN. Ellen will share the joys and curiosities of underground cave life, history of the park, and how geology helps us understand cave creation and our locality. Ellen enjoys reptiles (especially snakes!), music, and board games when they’re not at the cave!
