Wolverines EXTREME at Peppersauce Caves

If you know where Oracle, AZ is, then you may know about Peppersauce Caves.  If not, then here are a few pictures of the Wolverines EXTREME exploring the roughly one mile of underground caverns, tubes, crevasses, and claustrophobia-inducing spaces.  An amazing experience!  BUT KEEP IN MIND, THE FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY DISTORTS JUST HOW DARK IT ACTUALLY WAS IN THERE!

 Makeshift caving headgear when you are on a budget.


 The duct tape belt is more useful than you might think.


 The Wolverines EXTREME:  Crew 9680


 You have to climb up to the entrance.


 And that entrance is not readily noticeable from the trail.


 One of the many large caverns in the cave.


 Descending down, down, down!


 Some corridors are fairly large.


 Other corridors, not so much.


 Often you have to inch your way along on your back.


 The end of the path brings you to a smaller cavern with a sign-in book.



Gravity-defying!


Don't get stuck!


Really tight squeeze!


Final picture at the end of an awesome trip!
