This Photographer Captured A Rare Sight—Frozen Waves At Dream Lake, Colorado

The ice wave phenomenon isn't too rare, especially in the Rocky Mountain National Park, but it certainly provides a more unique contour compared to occurrences elsewhere. The world is yet to figure out what exactly plays a role in the formation of these ice waves, but there are two prevalent theories so far: [1] it is the result of the synergy of water, cold weather, and wind, or [2] drifting snow melting across the surface of the frozen lake and re-freezing into ice over time.
