We live in Idaho and are instead going to hit up some of the bigger caves here this week.evabinghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363004702231552927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001343175547125935.post-72104070858987184062011-12-02T20:11:50.251-08:002011-12-02T20:11:50.251-08:001.

Go until the drop-off or until you feel wind. Either way it doesn't guarantee you that you'll be able to get through. You may get stuck and die. <br />2. The other problem is the approach to the cave. There will be at least 3 feet of snow. Loose, fluffy snow. The only feasible approach during the winter time is hiking in for a day (they close the road off) or snowmobiling in. I've tried hiking in-it stinks. <br />I've been stuck in there by the ice - got search and rescued. The best time is late fall, before the snow gets there. I really reccomend a guide that has been through a couple times. this cave can throw a lot at you, so maybe just wait till next year.<br /><br />P.S. It may not be open due to multiple cave closures in the U.S. See white-nosed syndrome. But if you don't mind all those problems and an icy entrance that will require creativity just to get inside the cave, it will blow your MIND. just dont get stuck (or die).Joe and Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12156031145748244279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001343175547125935.post-50336464377706710072011-12-02T18:15:04.347-08:002011-12-02T18:15:04.347-08:00How is winter time to go to the caves?

Do you know of anyone we could pay to do that?<br /><br />Thanks for any help you might be able to give.<br /><br />Matt<br />rexburgmatt@gmail.comMatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09665741991504350322noreply@blogger.com
