Alabaster Caverns State Park, Natural gypsum cave system in Freedom, Oklahoma.
The main cavern extends three quarters of a mile into the rock formation, measuring 60 feet wide and 50 feet high with water streams flowing through.
The caves served as hideouts for outlaws in the 19th century before Hugh Litton documented the first exploration in 1898.
The park conducts educational programs about cave ecosystems, geology, and environmental conservation through guided tours and seasonal events.
Tours of the cave system operate every hour with a maximum capacity of 40 persons per group and last approximately 45 minutes.
The caverns contain black alabaster, found in only three locations worldwide: Oklahoma, Italy, and China.
