A postcard of a famous formation in Carlsbad Caverns spreads the wonder and joy of this fascinating place.

The Lion's Tail stalactite is one of the most famous formations in the Carlsbad Caverns National Park -- so famous that it has its own postcard!

The Lions Tail is a stop on the handicapped-accessible Big Room tour, over on the west side of the room. It was Younger Sister Blaster's favorite formation when we were there, so I was sure to get a photo of it.

Fun Fact: We have been to Carlsbad three times, and each time we have sent the Lion's Tail postcard to someone! :)
