There isn't a lot to see from the top of the observation tower at
Longhorn Cavern State Park, but while you are waiting for your underground tour, it can be a fun place to check out light and shadow patterns.
The tower was built in 1935 as part of a
Civilian Conservation Corps project that included hauling about 2.5 tons of silt, debris and guano out of the underground river-formed limestone cavern, according to park brochures.

| It is a lot cooler on the second floor. |

| Two winding staircases take you to the top. Watch your head. |
