Cave exploration at Sinks Canyon State Park

Have you ever dreamed of exploring the depths of a real cave? Traveling underground where you would find a cool, winding underground spring?

Through the Wyoming Kids Xtreme program, developed by the Wyoming Division of State Parks, Historic Sites and Trails, kids will get the chance to participate in real cave exploration at Sinks Canyon State Park.

On August 22, State Park employees will take kids and their parents on a tour of a Sinks Canyon State Park cave. In addition, staff will be on hand for the Sinks Canyon Junior Ranger Program that is will "kick-off" this summer.

To participate, kids are asked to fill out the application found at the following link http://wyoparks.state.wy.us/Kids/KidsXtremeAPPLICATION.pdf. Once the application is accepted, participants will be notified of their time slot for the Cave Adventure.

For more information, please contact State Parks, Historic Sites and Trails Administrator Domenic Bravo at 307-777-6324, or via email at dbravo@state.wy.us.
