Timpanogos Cave


Today the 6th grade went on a field trip to Timpanogos Cave. We hiked up 1 1/2 miles to get to the cave. We went inside the cave. It is so cool!!! :) This is near the entrance.



We got to go in all Three of the Caves. Hansen Cave, Middle Cave, and last but most Famous, Timpanogos Cave!!!! Hansen Cave is named after the man that found the cave. His last name was Hansen. Duh!!!!


This is in Timpanogos Cave. It is dripping water from the Stalactites. It is so cool!! :) If you touch them, they turn brown, and die. So we can't touch anything in the caves at all.

This is what the park rangers call the " Hershey Kiss". It really looks like one. We hadn't eaten lunch yet, so when I saw this I got hungry.

While we were having Lunch, a worker fell of the cliff where we came out of the caves. He had to be life Flighted. We immediately had to get on the bus. Here is a link so that you can read the rest of the story.
