Summary edit
| Description |
English: Raised footprints. Snow in Antarctica is granular and dry, like sand. Wind can lay down a layer of snow, and then pick it up. If someone walks across the snow and packs it down, their footprints may remain while the rest of the snow blows away - leaving these raised footprints. McMurdo Station, Ross Island, Antarctica. |
