WHERE ICE NEVER MELTS...


Scarisoara glacier and ice cave.
By André Rey Vidal, 4th year ESO.
1165 metres over the sea level, the Scarisoara Glacier is still standing there to be admired. The giant block of ice is one of the glaciers which hasn't melted since the Ice Age. Even though it has never disappeared, its shapes are in continuous change. In the summer, a few centimetres of the ice layer melts while in the winter, with the new snow and the freezing temperatures, it grows up into amazing renovated forms.
