Hiking
This naturally occurring cave in the sandstone ledges is aptly named because of the low temperatures that can be found inside. This makes it a great stop off point on a hot summers day.

Hiking
Cave is blocked off with metal grates to protect native bats. However it is likely 20 degrees cooler at the entrance, a refreshing break.
