Puerto Rico, Day 4 - WUPR

Today we drove to Utuado in the mountainous, west-central part of Puerto Rico. 

We hiked with a group through the woods of Caguana Indian Ceremonial Park, up and down steep, muddy paths and through water before finally reaching the top of a hill.

After further hiking we came upon....

an ancient cave with petroglyphs carved in the rock by Taino Indians long before Columbus "discovered" this part of the world.  Click the picture bigger to see what looks like a monkey head on my shoulder.

After more hiking we came upon upon a giant crack in the hills where we went cave tubing.



I wonder how many bats are flying around in here.....?

After about 4 hours our Utuado adventure was over.  Very tiring and very fun!

1530 AM WUPR is a Spanish News/Talk station licensed to (W) Utuado, Puerto Rico.
