Ice Caves...







"In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience
is a form of exploration."
Ansel Adams



When we got back from our vacation in November...
we'd had a fair amount of snow...
wet snow...
which hung onto the roof and caused numerous leaks inside...
we had to have the snow and ice removed from the roof as it wasn't sloughing off...
it all landed right in front of the stairs to the back yard...
the chunks stuck together and formed these cool caves...
that have just gotten even cooler with the snow melt!!!

    I was not so far away from the Mammut lake for 2 weeks ago, but I think it was to much snow to go there, maybee next time..

    So beautiful but probably not that practical if they block the stairs.

    It must be quite fun observing the changing scenes caused by the snow.

    That must have been some weight to have on the roof before you had it brought down.

    Before I read your description I saw something deep and dangerous in this photo. My reaction was visceral. I really love this shot, and could stare into it for a long time.

    Thanks Pat! It's getting warmer every day!!! The ice caves will be melting soon!!!

    Thanks Min Fotogen!!! Maybe next time you're visiting in this area you can stop by!!!

    It really doesn't matter that the stairs are blocked Arija...there's about 4 feet of snow on the patio down the stairs anyway!!!

    It is quite interesting Karen!

    I hope so too Andrea!!!

    Haha!!! We're on the same page NatureFootstep!!!
