Modern Day
Today, over 2000 visitors come to Cody Caves Provincial Park every summer. Visitors are guided through the caves on a one hour tour with a professional interpreter.
The caves are accessible to everyone, from expert cavers to novices and families. Special three hour long adventure tours as well as school and group tours can also be arranged.
As of September 2011, guided tours and cave access have been suspended to prevent the spread of fungal 'White-Nose Syndrome', an infection that is currently affecting bat colonies across North America. Cave visitors are advised not to carry caving gear from areas east of the Rockies into any BC caves, and enouraged to download and read the website's supplied documentation on White-Nose Syndrome and procedures for decontamination.

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or day:
“The modern queer was invented by Tennessee Williams. Brando in blue jeans, sneakers, white T-shirt and leather jacket. When you saw that, you knew they were available.”
—Derek Jarman (b. 1942)
“One day beside some flowers near his nose
He will be thinking, When will I look at it?
And pain, still in the middle distance, will reply,
At what? and he will know it’s gone,
O where! and begin to tremble and cry.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
