Minnewaska State Park Preserve: Sam's Point Area
Join Becca Howe-Parisio, Environmental Educator, for a walk
through the historic Ice Caves, where the air temperatures remain cool and
comfortable all summer and a large chunk of ice rests beneath the boardwalk
trail. If you've ever been curious about how this nationally recognized,
natural landmark formed, this program is for you! While on this three-mile
walk, Becca will offer a lesson on the unique geology of the entire Sam's Point
area, including other visible geologic features, such as glacial evidence and
extinct faults. This hike will take place on a series of carriage roads and
footpaths which include a somewhat steep hill and some rocky terrain. Good
mobility is required for this hike, as there are also two ladders to climb.
Meet at the Sam's Point Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required by
signing up via Eventbrite.
