In Eoreumgol Valley, a cold natural wind blows through the cracks in the rocks, as if an air conditioner had been turned on. The more severe the heat, the more prominent the freezing phenomenon, and in March and April, ice begins to form in the crevices of the rocks, reaching its peak during the Sambok heat. In winter, warm air comes out from the cracks in the rocks where the ice was formed, so the valley water does not freeze.
