Ice Cave Adventures

“Ice Caves Go Viral” by Kaitlyn

As fleeting as they are iconic, the ice caves of Apostle Islands National Lakeshore are considered an endangered national park experience. With spring around the corner, the ice caves will soon be a memory, with no guarantee of their accessibility in winters to come.

Braving the biting cold of a couple weeks ago, they trekked across the big lake to experience–and capture–these elusive cathedrals. Enjoy their photos below.
