We had a nice drive from El Paso TX to Carlsbad, NM this morning. We passed thru the Guadalupe Mtns. This is El Capitan. Looking at the map, I think we will be leaving the mountains soon.
All of the cave tours were sold out when we got here. We have purchased tickets for a guided tour tomorrow morning. There are 2 self guided cave tours totalling about 2.25 miles. We did both of them. This is an amazing place. It was nice to be able to go at our own pace and really enjoy the formations. There are lots of park rangers along the way and they gave lots of interesting information. We will go back tonight to see the bat flight. There are about 20.000 bats living in the cave. If they all leave for a night of feeding it is really spectacular. Last night only 4 left so we are hoping they all want to eat tonight.
