Huge fields of penitentes

Huge fields of penitentes

A slope completely covered with high penitentes. They were about a meter high and the ascent/descent here was about 200m. A hard work to get through. Nadine can be seen almost at the bottom of the field.

Re: surreal

Thanks!
Surreal to look at for sure, but walking through that mess felt very real...in a not so nice way :-)
