An incredible natural phenomenon in New York that can only be seen in winter
It is always interesting to watch how the natural wonders of New York are transformed in the winter, acquiring new looks that make visiting places familiar and surprising and intriguing. A must-see in the cold season is Letchworth Park, located near the Genesee River and nicknamed the Grand Canyon of the East.
Letchworth boasts three waterfalls along the river, but the reason for its charm in winter is not in this, writes Only in Your State.
On 14 000 acres (5 666 ha) of Letchworth Park with many waterfalls and gorges, there is plenty to see.
In the heart of the park, across from the Glen Iris Inn, every winter, under certain conditions, there is a natural phenomenon that attracts visitors from all over the state to this place.
Known as the Ice Volcano, the park’s gravity fountain quickly begins to freeze over when the weather gets cold enough. At the same time, water continues to be sprayed inside this ice block.
Towards the end of last winter, the ice volcano grew to about 30 feet (9 m) in height, but the most epic season that always attracted the most attention was in 2015, when the ice volcano reached 50 feet (15 m).
I wonder how high the icy volcano of Letchuort will be this winter.
The fountain has been in the park since 1860, but it began to attract the attention of the public in 2014-2015.
