Ice Caves Pictures from Donna Nickel




We went to the ice caves at Lake Superior on March 2. As amazing as the ice formations on the cliffs was the ice we walked upon. You could easily see to the bottom of the lake, as the ice was so clear. There were bubbles frozen into place, and cracks of all sorts. It was a treacherous walk, but indescribably beautiful. We spoke with a ranger who told us that this phenomenon has not occurred for “many many years."

Included are photos I took by aiming my camera toward the lake bottom.
