Does anyone happen to have either GPS coordinates or good directions to the Eben Ice Caves (West of Munising/Chatham)? Heading up early next month and haven't been there in many, many years.
Thanks in advance!

That area is not real good on street signs or markers. When you get to Eben Junction you will see a bar on the northwest corner at Eben Rd. You can stop in and they can tell you the street to turn on. Follow Eben road north until the snowmobile tracks turn right. Follow the tracks until the road deadends and go into a small parking lot. Go through the lot across a field (follow tracks). There will be a trailhead and, as I recall, a sign as you walk towards the caves. You cannot take your sled to the caves; you must hike. It gets pretty strenous as you get close to the caves. Its worth seeing once.

Pretty much what Rodehard said. Its is off of trail 8 I think the bar is The Blue Moon or something like that. I also recall when headed north on eben rd. the road will turn to gravel thats where you follow the paved road to the right, then strait into the field, follow tracks park and hike.

Thanks for the info! The last time I was there you could ride your sled right to the caves, but that was a long time ago though.
Appreciate it!
