Betty Burkland sent a note about touring these caves.
"...(I) want to visit Danger Cave & Juke Box Cave while in Wendover, so I contacted the guy who has the keys & does the tours. I'm wondering if there might be other racers who might like to do that some time . . . maybe after they're done racing, or maybe someone in their family would like to check the caves out . . . any how, I have a sheet listing all the info..."

https://metcalfarchaeology.com/danger-cave/Here are some dates for archaeological tours of Danger Cave State
Monument. These tours will include both Danger Cave and nearby Juke
Box Cave. Our rates have changed for the new fiscal year and are as
follows:
Adults - $20.00
Kids 8-16 - $15.00
These dates are contingent on a couple of things. First, we do need to
have at least 10 people register for the tour unless I'm already out there (l
don't live in Wendover). Tour size is limited to 18 people. Due to dust in the
caves face masks must be worn inside the caves. Please note, the hike to
Danger Cave is pretty short and easy. The hike to Juke Box Cave is steep
with loose rocks but it is a short hike. Good shoes are a must and a
trekking pole helps.
