Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

C is for Crevasse
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

A Crevasse is an open fissure in the surface of a glacier.

As a glacier slowly moves down its path, ridges of rock and changes of gradient on the ground below cause stresses in the ice and fissures in the surface of the glacier may open. These cracks can be anything from less than a meter to hundreds of meters deep and are regarded as one of the most dangerous features of the mountain environment.



Some crevasses are very big.
