Went with Babs to California Caverns for the first time!
Collected drip water samples and timed the speed of the drips, along with setting the pCO2 probe up to collect until the next month. Babs comes monthly and works with the cave owners to arrange access during less frequented parts of the day. Two or three small groups are guided through the cave while we are sampling.
Overall, just a short trip to grab samples and head back to school. The inside of the cave feels very vast though the tours seem quite short. I'm lucky because this cave is smaller than Lilburn, and we can get to our sampling locations just by walking.
Below is a photo of one of the collection spots.
