Description
As the waterfall in St Louis Canyon at Starved Rock State Park, in Illinois, USA, freezes this beautiful scene is created. Icicles form at the edges of the cliff, and ice builds up like a stalagmite from the bottom. Soon the top and the bottom will meet in a completely frozen waterfall. The color in the bottom ice comes from sand and other minerals that the water leeches from the sand stone cliff.
