So there actually is a desert oasis in the desert…
No fish though.
Didn’t bother me the 1st time through!
I’ll take 110-115° and dry over 90° with full blast humidity like home.
Why are frozen waterfalls sometimes blue? For the same reasons that glaciers are blue… the red and yellow parts of white light are absorbed by the ice, leaving only the blue light scattered throughout. The longer it takes for light to travel through ice, the more blue it appears. In simpler terms, if the ice is thin, all light passes through it. If it’s thick and compact, mostly blue light makes it through. Frozen blue waterfalls are one of my favorite things about winter.
Very cool! Blue light has a higher frequency than red light. Because red light has much less energy in it, the ice literally absorbs it. I love the science of nature! This totally belongs in the Random Facts Thread!
Thanks for explaining it better! It’s fascinating to me.
I let “God” lead the way this morning and was blessed with this…
I am still in awe at what I saw, I sat in silence with tears streaming down my face. I am just so grateful to be present in my life today and able to experiences the beauty of life.
Three thumbs up on the first one
I’m loving those colors in the sky…it was nice that you was present to witness it
I recognize that place. I’m going in February… when there’s almost no one else around.
The best time to go!
Where’s the beach
Just outside Barstow.
It’s gonna look like this for 5 hours now.
But everyone seems comfy.
