Ice Water Flowing Down The Jotunheimen National Park
After A Big Disappointment
Two months before travelling to Norway I planned to drive the Old Snow Road across the Jotunheimen National Park but the road was still closed in late May due to the snow. I was so disappointed that I parked the car near the crossing gate and continued walking to capture some photos of that amazing place.
Photo - Ice Water Flowing Down The Jotunheimen National Park
I found several of these rivers while I was walking the Old Snow Road in the Jotunheimen National Park, the melted snow coming from the the top of the mountains were forming these small rivers of frozen waters. This photo was taken at 1001 meters of altitude (3284 feet).

Spring in Norway is quite intense due to the abundance of water (melting snow) in conjunction with plenty of sunlight and quickly rising temperatures, typically in May. You will see so many of these rivers running down the mountains.
