Trip report by Treavor Bussard

Treavor Bussard, Kayla Sapkota, Jessie Bridges, Megan Gallo, and Derek Thompson, entered the back door entrance at 10:30 a.m. The group added a cross section in a small passage connecting T-Junction/Thunder Falls and the beginning of Carroll River Passage. After a short visit to the top of Thunder Falls, the group then traveled up stream noting on the map where ripples existed within Thunder River to just past the entrance of UL2. Along the way the group counted 157 Eigenmamn’s Cave Fish, and 2 Adult Grotto Salamanders. The group then returned and exited the cave via the backdoor entrance by 5:00 p.m. While waiting on others to climb out of the cave. Treavor and Jessie visited the Angel Pool formation area and end of the T-Survey.
