Cherney Maribel Caves County Park is a county park located near Maribel, Wisconsin in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin. The park occupies 75 acres along the West Twin River. Cherney Maribel Caves consists of seven caves along a rugged cliff line that runs parallel with the West Twin River. == History == Cherney Maribel Caves was formed primarily by glacial activity during the last ice age. Glaciers wore down the surface of the land and exposed a layer of rock called Niagara Dolomite, forming the naked crags and cliff line in the park. Since then, the rock has broken down and decomposed, causing caves to form. Around 1892, the first of the caves were discovered on the property of Judge Henry A. Alrich, and was soon purchased by Charles Steinbrecker, who, in 1900, built the nearby Maribel Caves Hotel. Over the next several decades, many tourists made their way to see the caves. In 1931, Adolph Cherney bought the property, including the nearby hotel. On 5 November 1963, Cherney sold the cave property to Manitowoc County for $16,200, becoming the very first Manitowoc County park.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wisconsincaves.org/tartarus-cave-system )〕
