Cave Adventures

	Cave Adventure Join Dennis on a wild cave tour -- a day of exploring one of the many dry caves of Mexico's Mayan Rivera. Learn about the flora and fauna of the jungle surrounding the entrance to the underworld, as well as the wonders we may encounter while underground. As we explore the labyrinth of beautifully decorated passages and navigate crystal clear pools of refreshing water, we'll discuss the formation of caves, their wonders and their fragile nature. We will review caving techniques used in Mexico and how other areas of the world differ. We may be able to find passages never explored before. Then, if you want, it’s time to take out the survey instruments and map and name our discovery! On our guided cave adventure we provide transportation, an excellent lunch and snacks, caving helmets, headlamps, batteries, gloves, caver’s kneepads and, when necessary, caving harnesses, ropes, descenders (for rappelling) and ascenders (for climbing ropes). You won’t need prior experience underground, just a reasonable fitness level. In fact, anyone with some hiking experience will do fine. I recommend that you bringing along a sturdy pair of walking shoes or boots for your Yucatan adventure. Our excursions are tailored to our clients, so after a short interview I will make recommendations that will set the level of exertion for our day, based on your experience and expectations. I believe in cave conservation and safety. I believe in and follow the Caving Code of Conduct
