Yup. Been through there on the way to the Ice Caves plenty of times. We can whine about the rain all we want, but I will take it over oppressive heat and drought any day. Yes, we are lucky to be out here.

Tell me more about the Ice Caves! Where are they? My kids would love that!!!

And welcome to our chatty little thread to the both of you!!!!

I grew up in Granite Falls!!!Well sorta- I went to Jr. High and High School there.And the Ice Caves are above Granite Falls ...just follow the Mountian Loop Hiway and you'll see the signs for the caves. I forget how far it is from Granite but its a beautiful drive.And the hike to the caves is so nice.I miss going up there to all the hiking trails and camping sites.I just dont have the time anymore.We spent alot of summers up in those woods while I was growing up.
And can you believe Granite Falls has a McDonalds???? So Sad...Lots of things are different up there....I was kinda sad to see the old Tigers Den was gone...They had the best greasy fries!!!

Granite Falls brings back lots of memories

Did alot of camping up there (Verlot,) and hiking (Lake-22, Ice caves)

WA4-Hpoultrymom

Ice caves are past Granite falls at the "Big Four" there are signs. BUT the Caves can be Dangerous

Several people have been killed in the caves over the years. Hunks of ice fall on them. I think it was two years ago a teenage girl was killed in them. some times they post signs NOT to enter the caves!!! Its an easy hike about two miles. If you can go in them, you WILL get rained on . water dripping from the ceiling

If you have NEVER been there, it is worth a trip !!

I listed a couple of auctions here on BYC, but I could only fit 3 of them in my signature.

I also have nine 2 wk old bantam cochin chicks for sale. Auction is here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=6903401#p6903401

Oh it was you, Rustyhen, that broke your wrist! So sorry! Couldn't remember who it was after I went through 20-30 pages of catch up the other day. Our church piano player broke hers last Sat. Bummer for both of you! Hope you heal well and fast!

Ok, now I'm craving greasy fries! Used to work at one of those burger bars when I was 15. We used real potatoes, cut and fried them ourselves! Made the best greasy fries! YUM!!!
