Sculptures from the sky.
Canada is best known for its snow. That great
blanket of white that covers the landscape is
famous around the world!
Its tiny ice crystals come in countless shapes and
sizes. If the weather is very cold, the snowflakes
will fall as “dry” powder. Or, they may form slender
columns that look like tiny wooden pencils under a
microscope. But, snowflake seekers can be treated
to the iconic star shape that can be seen when
the conditions are just right. Windless conditions
and -15°C (5°F) temperatures mean every ice
crystal can grow large and drift gently earthward
without hitting any other crystals to form its sixsided
shape.
