The name Aillwee is derived from the Irish Aill Bhuí which means "yellow cliff". [2] Privately owned, it forms part of the Aillwee Cave and Birds of Prey Centre attraction.
The Burren (/ ˈ b ʌr ə n / BURR-ən; Irish: Boirinn, meaning 'rocky district') [1] is a karst/glaciokarst landscape centred in County Clare, on the west coast of Ireland. [2] It measures around 530 square kilometres (200 sq mi), within the circle made by the villages of Lisdoonvarna, Corofin, Gort and Kinvara. [3]
Much of the water in the cave is fed from the sinks of Upper Pollnagollum, at the point where surface water runs off the shale bedrock and sinks into the permeable limestone. The terminus of the cave is a low bedding plane which eventually becomes too low to progress. The water resurges at the Killaney rising to the south of the cave.

Ice cave history. Mount Rainier was once known for its well-developed ice cave system, the Park Service said. Those melted away due to a warming climate. Now, ice caves are seasonal and more unstable.
Cave environments fall into three general categories: Endogean; the parts of caves that are in communication with surface soils through cracks and rock seams, groundwater seepage, and root protrusion. Parahypogean; the threshold regions near cave mouths that extend to the last penetration of sunlight. Hypogean; or "true" cave environments.
