People get a close-up view of the ice caves on the Apostle Islands

Listen to our conversation with Neil Howk. He's with the National Park Service at the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore on Lake Superior.

Before the ice melts, let's take time to celebrate one of winter's great gifts: the sea caves at Apostle Islands National Lakeshore.

Eighteen miles west of Bayfield, Wisconsin is where you can find the island chain in Lake Superior. The islands and the ice have created a breathtaking natural art gallery.

The ice caves on the Apostle Islands have been a huge draw for tourists.
