Ice Volcanoes: Presqu'ile Provincial Park near Brighton, Ontario

[Victoria Fox]

I just wanted to share this natural phenomenon with you all! I am fascinated by these ice volcanoes and apparently this year's formations are the best display for ten years.

For more information on how these are formed here's a link to the park's blog: http://www.parkreports.com/parksblog/?p=4822

I also found some great photos by a fellow Belleville photographer (not a mere amateur like myself!) - http://blog.dannysheppard.com/2014/01/presquile-ice-volcanoes.html?utm_source=BP_recent

Here are a couple of shots I took on Monday...but they really don't do it justice:





Just wondering if anyone else has visited this year or anyone planning to? Would love to see your photos!

NICE Wish I could get up there. Hubby is on vacation next week so if we don't hit Pennsylvania then maybe a trip back to Kingston and Prince Edward County....and Bellville :)

Such beautiful shots and what an interesting concept!

Thanks for the link to the information on ice volcanoes I saw them from the train last week as I passed by Lake Ontario (here's my photo: http://365project.org/serenebarb/365/2014-02-03 ) and was curious about them; I don't live by the lake so I haven't witnessed this before.

Very cool winter phenomenon!

@bozi @barneyone @luvmynynix It's bizarre isn't it....but fascinating!

@k1w1 Hope you have fun on vacation! If you do end up heading this way let me know - there are also some good ice volcanoes on the NW shoreline of Prince Edward County (west of Consecon) and some small ones at Sandbanks.

@serenebarb Yay! Thanks for sharing your photo - lovely elevated view of them. I only heard about them at the weekend from friends who had just visited them...and I seriously thought they were pulling my leg!
