If this looks to you like the setting of a fairy tale, you"re not alone. England"s Cranborne Chase has long inspired writers and painters, and it"s been designated a national protected area because of its natural beauty. It may be especially beautiful in winter, when the trees and shrubs can be coated with hoarfrost, an uncommon type of frost that forms when water vapor turns directly into ice, skipping the liquid stage.
