Caverns trip in April/May 2006
 |
A beautiful sunset in Wilcox, AZ. |
 |
There was a great open wash behind the RV Park to run Meghan. This park also had free wi-fi. |
 |
The entrance to the Caverns was up a pretty canyon about 9 miles long. |
 |
Our first tour called Left Hand Tunnel was an off trail one which used candles for light. Our guide Ken was from New Zealand. The guy on the right is our traveling partner Rob Lindvall. |
 |
Popcorn stalactites. |
 |
Linda enjoyed the cool 56 F fresh cave air.. |
 |
These were called soda straws. |
 |
The formations were awesome even in this small tunnel. |
 |
Yours truly keeping warm with my polar Tec sweater on. |
 |
This guy was a bit weird having come from Cuba. |
 |
These were called popcorn stalagmites forming from the floor up, drop by drop. |
 |
These stalactites were beautifully colored. The large center portion of this formation is called a column. |
 |
Watch your step Linda or you will fall into that pool We had to stay between the taped lines. |
