The Timpanogos caves are located pretty high up the backside of Mount Timp. The average time it takes for most people to hike this trail is around 45 min - 1 hour. We thought we were running late for our tour time so we booked it up the trail. It took us 27 min. Once we got to the top we realized that our tour started 1 hour and 30 minutes later. The time our tickets told us to start hiking is the time we thought our tour started! We ended up sitting around at the top until our tour. Honestly, I thought my lungs were going to burst. The last 1/4 of the hike I had to hold on to Austin's camelback so I could keep the pace! What a good guy! We went with our friends Bobby and Ashlee. Good times. Below from left to right. 1) Myself and Austin outside the main entrance to the cave. 2)Austin's back side (which is very nice) as he "squeezes" through the cave. 3)A rock formation that looks like a St. Bernard dog. Pretty Funny! 4) This picture was taken in the dark and I look pretty goofy. Austin thinks I look like a bat or maybe a smiling vampire (don't ask why) so I turned it upside down so you can the full effect.
All in all I decided that a lot of the rock in the caves reminds me of the Ghost Busters movie where the gooey stuff is all over in the sewers (and that weird guy is in a painting)... anyways, pretty cool stuff. We had a good time.
