The Tetons got pummeled with up to 4 feet of good stuff in the last week. Skied up a beautiful creek in the Snake River Range yesterday in -13 degree temps! Deep trenches.

Nice! I've never been over to see that sculpture contest, nor the ice palace in Dillon, thanks!

Re: Theme’s 3 photos on Jan 21 (page 144): Those trees look like what happens in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. There is a scientific term used to describe the odd way and reason snow forms like that on those trees and it only occurs in a few places on earth.
I use to recall the term and attempted to find it but failed. Does anyone know the term for that? -And where else it happens…

Re: Pictures, pictures and pictures!
I think it's mostly just high moisture snow adhering in those pictures, but the ice crystal portion is probably "rime ice". If it is rime ice, it's pretty common.The GCW wrote: ↑Wed Feb 01, 2023 12:35 pmRe: Theme’s 3 photos on Jan 21 (page 144): Those trees look like what happens in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

Hoar frost is another common type of ice but there is a type of icing called "hair ice" that is pretty rare.
