Mexico Caving Day 6
Nikky LaBranche looks down while climbing out of Sótano de la Golondrinas (1,150 feet) during a triple-tandem climb with Chris and I. It was the most peaceful day of the expedition, with only the three of us in the pit.

Went on one last cave trip to Trout Cave before it is gated and forever closed. I got an amazing photograph of endangered Virginia Long-eared bats!!!

Here is Chris and I at the entrance. In a month, it will be gone and the awesome scenery will be replaced with cold, long steel bars to keep people out.
