TR -- Paris Ice Caves, Little Valley Res., and Preston, ID
We took off again on Saturday for another ride. I had never been to the Paris Ice Caves. I also saw a reservoir on the GPS that was above Paris called Little Valley Reservoir. I wanted to check it out for some possible fishing another time. The Ice cave was really cool! Freaking COLD! However we didn't even get to go into the good part. We didn't have flashlights and you crawl through a hole and it opens up into another cavern. A few people told us that icicles are hanging from the ceiling to the floor. They described it as like the one Superman movie with the ice cave. I will have to go back with my headlamp. Just an excuse to go back that's all. We also found a road that goes to Preston and we took that over the top. Then took another road back over Danish pass and into Fish Haven. Total miles around 100.

That looks like a blast. I had no idea that cave was up there. I've never seen a sign from the main highway.
There's a lot of cool things to see in that area, like Bloomington Lake, and the Minnetonka Cave.
I wonder what other places are up in that area that I haven't seen yet.

Last winter some guy who didn't know the cave was there, entered it from the east side at speed on an RMK 800. We got to watch the life flight helicopter land and haul him back to Pocatello.

Wow, so he took the road, and ran right into the cave wall?

He had actually passed the entrance that has the wooden walk way in it and was headed east, when he turned north, climbed the bank and did a Wiley Coyote into the south facing wall.
