Rime Ice

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

These formations known as "hard rime" are formed on the windward side of rocks when freezing fog combines with high wind velocity. Photographed on the summit of Silver Peak (5605 feet), October 24, 2009.

""All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds, awake in the day to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes to make it reality."" --T.E. Lawrence
