Our first three days here at Caves Branch were extraordinary, and a little out of everyone's comfort zone. The first expedition came with a 2 hour hike, ending with a 300 foot rappel that was the highlight of the day. Following everyone's descent was a fantastic lunch, what Hillard calls "Belizian sandwiches," provided by our guide Esperanza. The next day consisted of a much anticipated cave exploration. We climbed, crawled, swam, slept (only Mcdougal), and jumped all in a 5 hour adventure which was certainly a new experience for everyone. After both of these tours we visited our friends in the small community of Armenia. We played games of soccer, donated books and clothes, and had long, hard games of duck duck goose. I must say these last couple of days have been phenomenal and we are all fortunate to be a part of the first group at Caves Branch on the Belize Expedition, stay extreme you all.
Sincerely, Beach Corontzes
