Ice Box Canyon is one of the first hikes that I ever done when I moved to Las Vegas over 5 years ago. According to my GPS, the hike from the parking lot to the waterfalls is 1.6 miles. This hike is labeled moderate to difficult, but it really all depends on the weather and current conditions. The hike can be easy when the wash is dry, moderate during the middle of the summer, and difficult when it's cold and wet. You'll have to climb over boulders and scramble when it's cold and the wash is full of water. Be careful when climbing over some of the boulders as they can be very slippery when wet. The path is also rocky so watch every step. One false move and you can easily sprain an ankle. During the hot summer, the cliffs provide a lot of shade and the canyon rarely gets any sun. Thus, the name Ice Box Canyon. At least, that's what I was told by a fellow hiker. There's not much of a view from the trail to the waterfalls. I'm sure there's a great view if you can make over the falls. It's a sight to be seen when the waterfalls actually have water. Just the sounds of the falls crashing down can rock you to sleep.
