That is cool (pun intended!). I love to look at the big snow flakes thru a magnifying glass. Will try to get some pictures

Interestingly, they don't show the form of graupel we often see...looks like C4 without the column, but white (not clear)

I have seen CP7 several times in Idaho. They grow upright out of a bank of snow like a forest of snow trees.
