I'm always amazed at how the ice glazes branches, how the snow piles up, and ice formations. As the sun hits them, shines off of them, how it melts them, it is amazing.

Anyone have any idea how this might have happened? (I wonder if there are springs under there.)

Once in Michigan, I went riding through miles of ice coated trees. It was spectacular. Until it started melting and large pieces of ice started swacking the horse. He took it well.

It's called glaze en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaze_(ice) I imagine that the colder air is pooling in between the banks so is more likely to stay and allow ice to accumulate.
