Črni Vrh Slovenia ice formations circa 2016

Slovenia

High above the village of Črni Vrh, fantastical ice formations—including spikes over a yard long—encase the trees and lookout tower atop Mount Javornik. The windswept ice, or hard rime, is the result of fog freezing after a week of snow and gales. This image appears in the December 2016 issue of National Geographic magazine.

It's almost like Dall-E generated an image mixing the visual elements of cake icing, twisted towels, and troll hair.

Oh wow! Even as a Slovenian this is my first time hearing about this. Are they still there?
