Hair ice is a unique type of ice that looks exactly like grey hair. It's found on rotting wood, but only at night. It actually melts away completely every morning. If only our own grey hairs could disappear! To see hair ice yourself, you'll have to visit a forest during a humid, cold winter night. Trying to spot it among the snow will be the hardest part.
