I think those are probably flight similator contrails since the altitude doesn't seem to be high enough for contrails to form. Plus, a Cessna Skylane probably wouldn't be able to fly over them if they were contrails.

I was thinking skitter spray....

I see Walter visits one of the same sites I do. They're called Morning Glory clouds, you can find the original here, with a bit of explanation, but nobody really understands quite how they form.

Very interesting.

I've never heard of morning glory clouds. The closest thing I've seen is the contrail feature that can be added to your microsoft flight similator. You can make them big or small and they are very realistic.

They sort of look like lenticular formations ... like over mountain ranges. Terrain in the pic looks all wrong.

Neat phenomenon....
