A parting shot from the unusual beauty of Carlsbad Cavern. Soon we would be back in the gulf coast region with the wild environs of the western journey just a memory, but for the moment we were hundreds of feet underground with the rangers hinting that we needed to get back to the surface. There's more where this came from. Thanks for having a look at the photos. To get the bigger picture and enjoy the ride from the inside, I invite you to read the narrative I posted yesterday. Cheers.
