20-Foot ‘Ice Volcano’ Erupts in Western New York

No sex jokes, please

Freezing temperatures have helped transform a New York fountain from the 1800s into a 20-foot “ice volcano.”

Outside of the Glen Iris Inn in Castile, New York, a cone of ice sprays water up to some 50 feet in the air, giving off the appearance of an icy volcano.

This is not an unusual sight for the Glenn Iris Fountain, however, and even the 20-foot height it has reached this winter is not the tallest it can grow.

In fact, it gained national attention in 2015, drawing tourists to its location in Letchworth State Park when it reached its full height of 50 feet.
