Yosemite Nature - Frazil Ice

YOSEMITE'S FRAZIL ICE
 
It is hard to imagine that Yosemite is only 60 miles from Fresno, CA -- where it never snows and rarely gets below 32 F in the dead of winter. This is an incredible video. This phenomenon of nature only happens in March and April. I have never seen a creek come to a complete stop like this and then start up again someplace else.
 
It's behaves like lava flowing.
 
Summertime visitors to Yosemite National Park miss many of the unique events of winter and early spring. Frazil ice flows are dramatic natural events that occur in the waterfalls of Yosemite Valley during March and April.
