The amazing grandeur and power of mother nature...........
YOSEMITE'S FRAZIL ICE
It is hard to imagine that Yosemite is only 60 miles from Fresno -- where it never ever snows and rarely gets below 32 F in the dead of winter.
This is an incredible video! It only happens in March and April. I have never seen a creek come to a complete stop like this before and start up again someplace else. It's like a lava flow. Turn on your sound. Now just enjoy

Yosemite Nature Notes -- Frazil Ice I liked the video so much I took some stills from it for your enjoyment. But watch the video -- these snapshots just don't compare.
Last but not least: The video shows a short clip of Horsetail falls glowing in the evening sunset. Watch the video at 6:57, you can see two ravens flying across the lower part of these falls.
