Carlsbad Caverns National Park
























































Over the long weekend, we headed to Carlsbad Caverns National Park. We walked into more than 100 known caves over the Chihuahuan Desert.

We went down about 800 feet and enjoyed all the amazing formations and mineral deposits. We also had an opportunity to experience the Mexican Free tailed Bats take flight on Sunday night. We sat quietly and around 815 they came spiralling out of the cave into the night to eat. It was a fun weekend of hiking and exploring. We were also happy our hotel had a nice water slide and pool for the kids to enjoy in the later afternoons. Love, Jessie
