Title: Snow tunnel found in Russia Written by: duddy on Mar 28, 2013 (https://biology-forums.com/gallery/47/4_28_03_13_5_29_29.jpeg) (https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=11519) This snow tunnel near the Mutnovsky Volcano in Russia is almost a kilometre long. These tunnels form under the snow fields in deep ravines at the end of the summer thaw. Meltwater flows through glaciers towards lower elevations, finding an outlet at the terminus of the glacier and carving the ice on the way. The Mutnovsky Volcano is found in the southern part of the Kamchatka Peninsula. Comments: Looks like cake frosting. Written by: barry on Sep 30, 2013 |
