Minnetonka Cave is an
interesting nine room 2,000 foot long limestone cave containing
an impressive array of stalactites and stalagmites. Forest Service
guides conduct 1 to 1-1/2 hour tours of the cave from mid-June to
Labor Day. Tours start every half hour from 10 to 5:30. The tour
requires descending and ascending about 450 stairs, so wear comfortable
shoes. Also, you'll want to dress warmly as the cave temperature
is a damp 40 degrees (F).
The cave is located 9 miles west of St. Charles, ID on a Forest Service Road. Look for a sign on Hwy. 89 just past St. Charles. |
