Talofofo Caves Photos


A hidden cave entrance in the jungle...can you find it?


Josh showing off our first cave...did I mention that caves are rather hot??


Josh trying hard to find a way (other than rappelling) down the 50 foot drop...fortunately, he was unsuccessful!



Looking out into the jungle from the mouth of the cave while Josh is preoccupied with our trusty guidebook, trying to decipher the directions to the next cave


Mandi blending in with a cave...almost!


Mandi (looking much like a professional caver with that headlamp!) taking a break in the pictograph cave


The natural arch from afar


The arch frames a lovely view!


Interesting rock formations by the arch


Mandi attempting to document the small entrance to our last cave...and it only got smaller!


Once we made it through the initial tunnel, the cave opened up and was filled with beautiful rock formations. (Here, I must give a shout out to our camera...not a bad picture for a pitch black cave!)


Up close, the rocks were simply amazing!


Josh hiding in a teeny tiny room of the cave, which was only accessible if one was willing to slither down like a snake...


Video documentation of Josh's journey back from the teeny tiny room!
