  • Bixby is a great spot for hiking. A technical hike brought me by some amazing bluffs and then across a small bridge to the top of the bluff. Great terrain and cool geology. One the opposite side of the creek is the ice cave. Gated off but really cool to look inside this dark cave. No fee to enter. No restrooms.
  • We had a lot of fun. Great hike. Ice cave was awesome!! But really sad to see trash out there. Take care of our parks people!!
