Ice Caves Geology Walk and Talk at Sam’s Point

Join Becca Howe-Parisio, Environmental Educator, for a walk through the historic Ice Caves, where the air temperatures remain cool and comfortable all summer and a large chunk of ice rests beneath the boardwalk trail. If you’ve ever been curious about how this nationally recognized, natural landmark formed, this program is for you! While on this three-mile walk, Becca will offer a lesson on the unique geology of the entire Sam’s Point area, including other visible geologic features, such as glacial evidence and extinct faults. This hike will take place on a series of carriage roads and footpaths which include a somewhat steep hill and some rocky terrain. Good mobility is required for this hike as there are also two ladders to climb. Meet at the Sam’s Point Visitor Center. This is not a Shingle Gully hike.
