CUSTER, S.D. (AP) _ Tours at Jewel Cave National Monument in
South Dakota are being halted for a week while elevator maintenance
is done.
Officials say the tours will be closed Tuesday through Monday,
Feb. 13. The Visitor Center at the park will remain open.
Two 28-story elevators carry staff and visitors into the cave.
Superintendent Larry Johnson says maintenance work on the elevators
is best done during the winter, when there are fewer visitors.
