More stones in the Sunwheel and their shadows
after sunrise on the day of the Vernal Equinox, March 20, 2007.
Notice the depressions in the snow around the stones, caused
by the warmth of the stones melting the snow. Also, morning
rain on wet snow created a pocked appearance to the surface layer of snow.
This is the deepest snow cover present at the Sunwheel for the
Vernal Equinox.
