Site: Ice Cave Picnic Area
A group of forested picnic areas with tables and fire rings are located adjacent to the Ice Cave, a popular 650-foot-long cave that has a beautiful display of ice stalactites and ice stalagmites early in the season. When exploring the cave bring a flashlight/headlamp plus a back-up and a warm jacket even in summer months, as the cave remains cool. Snow and ice can be present in the cave throughout the summer.
During winter visitors will need to park at Atkisson Sno-Park and walk in one mile to the cave where a Washington Sno-Park permit is required for vehicles Dec. 1 - March 31.
