Paris Ice Cave 10 miles up the Paris Canyon Road - dirt road. Once in Paris, you have to turn on to W 2nd S Street and follow it to the ice cave. There will be a few forks in the road along the way but there are signs pointing you to the “Ice Cave”. This is easily passable for almost any vehicle. Most of the road is in very good condition. You'll run into a few spots where you'll want to navigate around the rock sticking up @2 or 3 inches. Water runs down into the cave from the surrounding hills from a small brook creating the ice in this cave. It is very cold and contains ice even during the hottest summers. Make sure that you use the correct entrance going in. There are 3 possible entrances, though only 1 is kid friendly. The others lead to a shimmy down a narrow crack or worse. If you find the sign for Paris Ice Cave, there is a short trail just to the left of it. Follow this trail, which leads you down to the first cavern.

Experience this 1.6-mile out-and-back trail near Bloomington, Idaho. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 40 min to complete. This is a popular trail for hiking, but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day. The best times to visit this trail are June through October. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash. The trail heads straight up the canyon, into the Caribou-Cache National Forest. At the top of the trail is Bloomington lake, a glacier-fed mountain lake surrounded by limestone cliffs. Nearby Big Spruce was the oldest living Engleman Spruce in the area at 100 feet https://bearlake.org/item/bloomington-canyon-bike-hike-trail/
