The Boyd Cave is a huge lava tube that was created during the eruption around the Newberry Crater. There is limited space to park cars, but the cave is very close. Bring at least two light sources and some layers, it is chilly in the cave and you might like to explore a little longer.

Mountain biking
Boyd Cave, a refreshingly cool underground cavern accessed by a ladder, requires dismounting and pushing your bike through its depths.

Mountain biking
One of several lava tube caves in the area, and one of the only ones open to the public without a tour. You can wander into the cave for about 1800 feet; I did not have a headlamp with me so I did not check this feature out.
