Timpanogos Cave

I did the Timpanogos Cave Hike and Tour on 18th of July, 2009.

Timpanogos Cave is located in American Fork Canyon, Utah. The cave consists of three moderate-sized limestone caves: Hansen Cave, Middle Cave, and Timpanogos Cave.
"To reach Timpanogos Cave System, which is located 6,730 feet above sea level, visitors must hike the 1.5 mile (2.4 km) hard-surfaced cave trail. The trail, which rises 1,065 feet (325 m), is considered a strenuous hike. Anyone with heart trouble or breathing problems should not attempt the hike." I have exercised induced asthma. This hike definitely challenged me, but I did it!
The ranger and tour guide for my group is named Charles. (see picture near the end)
