How I remember the difference between stalagmites and stalactites:
"Stalactites must hold on tight,
but stalagmites need not exert such might."

Looks like what I would imagine being under Mount Thunder.
I would love to explore those caves! They are nothing like what I've been in before.
(Florida does have caves. Also, I've been to Mammoth Caves in Kentucky and come caves near San Francisco.)
Have you hugged your arghule today?
