Timpanogos Cave

Last week, Darrin and I set out to do what Darrin REALLY wanted to do for his birthday: Timpanogos Cave! It didn't open until the 9th, so we had to wait. Darrin took Monday off work so that we could go. But then my client called at 5 am Monday morning when her water broke, so we had to reschedule for Thursday. (It was a good birth, though LONG since she didn't deliver until around 6 am Tuesday!)
So Thursday as soon as we were done with the states program we set off to hike to Timp Cave and do the tour.





Spring afternoons are a GREAT time to visit the cave! There were only 6 people total on our tour and the rangers were all bored, so we got to take a much longer tour and take as much time as we wanted. We asked lots of questions, took lots of pictures, and had a great time. Our tour was at 3pm. Earlier they'd been flooded by school field trips, later the after school hikers come. 3pm turned out to be perfect! I brought my big flash, and used it wirelessly to take pictures of cave formations. You can see them on my photography blog.
