We have been to GBNP a couple times, most recently Aug. last year. We took one of the cave tours (several options) and it was very good. The cave's tour history goes way back; think when does graffiti become historic?

There are also good CGs and hiking. Lower and Upper Lehman CGs (7300' and 7700') and Wheeler Peak CG at 9900' are the main ones. Hikes to the Bristlecone Pines and Wheeler Peak start at the end of the road by the CG.

We had a tremendous thunder and hail storm hit just as we got back to the interp. kiosk at the TH. We were able to wait it out before hiking back down to Lower Lehman, sometimes walking in 3 or 4 inches of hail for the first mile or so.
