Elepahants, Lava & Ice


Dinosaurs

Turtles

A lava rock trail leading to...
Ice
Yes, the Shoshone Ice Caves
A lava tube formed from the dormant Black Butte Volcano between Shoshone and Bellevue which was mostly sealed off at both ends and created an area for ice to form.
Right now the ice is 35' thick and you walk right over it
Nice little local adventure for a Saturday

Looks like the boys had the time of their life! About like mine when we went. Oh well you can't live here and NOT experience the ice caves!

You are so active with that little one! Good for you! Looks like a really cool place to visit! I am pretty sure my boys would never make past the dinosaur :)

You are amazing, that is quite an undertaking with three small kids. We have lived here for 12 year and I have never been to the ice-caves, so way to go, you just mighyt have inspired me to take a little side trip there with thw kids. By the way you look great!

Michelle always told me it was worth going at least once. We have yet to stop by, but maybe we will have to!
