One more image from the late 1980s of the Paradise Ice caves
You can see from this image what a beautiful day that was. Long ago. Karen

Karen, It looks like I was not the only one to crawl around in the middle of the glacier. Here is an interesting read. The site also has a number of photos of ice caves, including Paradise, plus lots of history. Ice Caves

Jim, that IS an interesting read ....
but it is hard to imagine that once there were 10 miles of ice caves there. I wish I could have seen it that way. Thanks for the link, Karen

Found these slides from a climb of Mt Baker in 1972. They are the biggest ice caves around. Taken from the crater north of the summit (not to the south after the heating episode). You could put houses inside and they went in a long way
