Rutahsa Adventures, in cooperation with the Cincinnati Grotto of the NSS, has organized a special trip for cavers to Guatemala, scheduled for April 2007. This excursion will be an amazing mix of caving in some famous caves, exploring spectacular karst terrane for new caves, and maybe some cave mapping. We'll top this off with visits to the spectacular Classic Maya ruins of Tikal, romantic colonial Antigua Guatemala, and a climb up an active volcano. We have planned visits to six or seven caves (more, depending on what our explorations turn up) most of which are active stream systems-- prepare for wet caving, but in waters that are delightfully warm compared to streams in US caves!

I went on the 2003 Rutahsa Caving Expedition to Guatemala. Some of the best caving in the 35 years I have been a caver! Ric Finch is an extremely competent tour operator and caver. Ric and Janie, his wife, have extensive knowledge of the country, history, flora and fauna of Guatemala.
The 2006 expedition is set to visit some incrediable caves. I'm not about to miss this trip!
Best part of caving in Guatemala - the cave water is WARM and the formations spectacular!
