Sidewalk Games #17: Iceshelf Calving
Posted on 8:52 AM
by Unknown
Crack and calve ice shelves that form along edges of snowbanks in early Spring. With each calving incident, a chunk will break off while making a dark hollow crack.
Points are given for size of the ice piece, and for depth of tone.
[An impending calving incident.]
