Matanuska Glacier has some of the most incredible surface hoar crystals growing in their ice caves right now. Had fun exploring it again, a couple weeks ago with my buddy @jussiruottinenphotography, as we focused on these textures for a couple hours. “Surface hoar crystals are large ice crystals that form from water vapor in an above freezing atmosphere coming in contact with a solid surface that is below freezing resulting in a phase change from water vapor to ice.” - @matanuskaglacier #matanuskaglacier #alaska #travelalaska (at Matanuska Glacier) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM25SxlJ-zd/?igshid=xxk397pbu2d1 -- source link
