We checked out Paulina Creek Falls on our way up into Newberry Crater. These falls are huge and slowly are marching upriver. 
There was just a light dusting of snow on everything.

Arnold Ice Cave
Arnold Ice Cave is one of a series of lava tubes in the area that only have access to the surface because part of the cave collapsed after the lava stopped flowing. There was a LOT of lava pumping through this area at one point in the past.
I climbed down into the cave which wasn’t easy since the old wooden stairs have all been destroyed. If it was actually icy, it would have been impossible to get into the cave without ropes. Because it was just the start of summer, we didn’t find any ice.
Heading off to the next adventure after the cave.
Boyd Cave
We took our truck out to Boyd Cave and went underground for about an hour exploring this lava tube. The tube goes much farther than we were willing to hike today. It’s free and not that far outside of Bend.
The entrance is pretty unassuming. Some cowboy must have been riding along and fallen into it to find this cave.

Looking back on the entrance to the cave. Once you get a little farther back into the cave and around the corner, it becomes pitch black.
From deeper in the cave. We kept going for about a half hour before we turned around and came back. This is a really long cave!
