Eben Ice Caves, Upper Peninsula, Michigan

The Eben Ice Caves only exist during the freezing winters of Michigan"s Upper Peninsula. For the rest of the year, there are only sandstone cliffs and cedar trees here. But when temperatures drop, water flows over the canyon cliffs and turns into these beautiful, colorful ice formations.
