We are the Timpanogos Grotto

Founded in 1974, as a chapter of the National Speleocial Society, the Timpanogos Grotto is Utah's largest membership organization dedicated to caves & caving. We work to connect cavers so they can work on exploring, studying, and conserving caves worldwide.

Whether you are just starting or have been caving for years, membership in the Timp Grotto means being a part of a large community of cavers.

Attend one of our grotto meetings - held once a month - and come be involved in countless caving trips, projects, and conservation efforts.

Our Purpose

Our purpose as the Timpanogos Grotto of the National Speleological Society is to conserve and protect caves everywhere, to explore and survey, participate in scientific research, protect the ecology of the cave environment, and provide opportunities for recreation in a safe and responsible manner. We also wish to acquaint a new generation of cavers to the old traditions and history of the caves in the intermountain area, while introducing them to the wonders of the underground.
