Feeling a little frustrated Sophia shook her head. "Come on," she said, patting Tim's shoulder. "Let's head back and see if the rain has stopped. We can come back here later and investigate further." Begrudgingly they tramped back up the trail that lead them to the mouth of the cave. When they got there the rain had stopped, but everything was still cloaked in dull gray shadows from the clouds overhead. Sophia looked around, wondering where their jackets.

"Our jackets are gone!" She exclaimed a little angrily. Trying to reason she added, "Maybe someone came by here and found them, thinking they were abandoned. They might be in the lost and found or something. I think it's time we go back anyway." Tim agreed, though he too was a little annoyed that their jackets were missing, and they started the trek up the nearby service trail and back to base where her car was parked and the visitor center was located.
