Baxter State Park.
A few days ago we went to Baxter State Park in northern maine for 3 days and had a good time. We went to see the ice caves which are caves that have been there since the glaciers melted at the end of the Ice Age.
It took forever to hike to the caves because the trails were not well marked so you could get easily lost trying to find the caves area. But if you have a GPS you are not most likely to get lost.
It was good it was not cold enough in the cave to have ice in there. My mom and dad went in to the cave and my mom got some pics of what the ice cave looks like from the inside and outside.
The ice caves were not in Baxter State Park. It was on Nature Conservancy land.
The last day we went to Grassy pond in Baxter State Park. It was a very nice hike and the pond was nice too and we did kind of see Mt. Katahdin. We went at a time when it was raining with lots of fog so we only got to see a little bit a the mountain from Grassy Pond. Then after the hike we went home.
We did not see any moose on this trip which was a bummer because I was really looking forward to that but we might go back in the summer so maybe I'll see some animals then.
Here are some pics when we went to Baxter State Park.
The outside of the big ice cave. There were metal steps to go down in to the cave.

This is inside the ice cave.
