| Description |
In winter, the San Luis Valley can have ideal conditions - frigid temperatures and temperature inversions that trap thick fog - for hoarfrost to form. Large, intricate ice crystals grow on surfaces throughout the natural world. Frozen wetlands and creeks release pockets of moisture that can enhance this process even further, so that when conditions are just right, frost 'flowers' appear on the ice. NPS/Patrick Myers |
