4/20/02 Longhorn Caverns State Park Trip Report

April 20, 2002
Longhorn Caverns State Park, TX - by Jae Kim

Nine volunteers led by Lynda DeGroot traveled to Longhorn Caverns between Burnet and Marble Falls to work on about a mile long trail. Trail Tamers moved gravel, laid the gravel on top of an existing trail to widen it somewhat, trimmed overgrown vegetation, and moved large/heavy rocks to help define a confusing section of trail.

The ranger, who also worked as the cavern tour guide, accommodated us with some great pastries and coffee for breakfast followed by lunch later on and finally a special "private" tour of the beautiful and remarkable cavern. Several Trail Tamers drove up Friday evening and stayed overnight at Inks Lake State Park compliments of the Longhorn Caverns staff.
