| no partners | | This was a really fun hike. It was pretty easy going. There were some areas you had to crawl, but that just made it all the more fun. I would recommend a jacket since it's pretty cold in the cave, but once we got farther in, we ended up tying them around our waists. Definitely wear sturdy shoes. I only had on Nikes and it was rough. Even my friend with hiking boots hurt her ankle, so be sure to watch for slippery/uneven rocks. That said, this hike is so cool especially if you have any interest in geology. You can see the way the lava moved to form the tunnels, and everything from the rock walls to the dust beneath your feet (actually ash) came from the volcano. Also, bring Wint-O-Green Lifesavers (just of course don't leave any wrappers). This is such a cool experiment. Once you get to the back of the tunnel, turn off your lights. It is so dark that when you chew on the mint, you can see sparks (probably have to watch someone else do it though unless you are incredibly flexible). Anyways, have fun! |
