I agree, these are nice formations but don't compare to those that four of us saw on our two day trek into Mayfield Cave between December, 1955 and February, 1956. I drove from Ft. Bliss in El Paso on a cold Saturday morning to meet Jimmy Walker, Bob Hudson and Ralph Derby. We crossed "the ledge" and saw formations that were more beautiful and unique than any we had seen before or since. Jimmy and I wrote briefly about this trip in the International Congress of Speleology edition of The Texas Caver. Viva Caverns of Sonora!
