Coudersport Ice Mine -(PA)

This is pretty cool... literally.

In the summer, because of the concentrated air flow... ice forms in this cave. In the winter, it melts.

They erected a hut over the entrance... and it began to melt. Theory was that it disrupted the air flow.

What an amazing world we live in.
