Rime Ice on Max Patch

Uploaded: April 23, 2006

Description

45mm f/4 @ f/22 Fuji Velvia 50

Appalachian Trail, Madison County, NC


Rime ice is a white ice that forms when the water droplets in fog freeze to the outer surfaces of objects. It is often seen on trees atop mountains and ridges in winter, when low-hanging clouds cause freezing fog. This fog freezes to the windward (wind-facing) side of tree branches, buildings, and any other solid object.
