In this photo taken Wednesday Jan. 8, 2014 patrons tour an ice castle at the base of the Loon Mountain ski resort in Lincoln, N.H. The ice castle begins to grow in the fall when the weather gets below freezing and thousands of icicles are made and harvested then placed around sprinkler heads and sprayed with water.  The castle will continue to grow as long as the temperatures stay below freezing.
