Where is the local iCloud drive folder?

I have searched and searched. Does anybody know where iCloud documents are stored locally? With dropbox it's fairly obvious because it's the same folder. But since there is no 'iCloud drive' folder, i can't seem to find it. This is to make sure it's backed up locally as well.


Thanks!

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

The iCloud Drive documents are all in your User Library: ~/Library/Mobile Documents/


The custom documents, you are storing in your own folders in iCloud Drive are in the subfolder

~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs


And yes, Time Machine will back up these documents, since they stored in your user library in your Home folder.
