The high clouds (cirrus (Ci), cirrostratus (Cs), and cirrocumulus (Cc)) are composed of primarily nonspherical ice crystals with shapes ranging from solid and hollow columns to plates, bullet rosettes, and aggregates, with sizes spanning from about ten to thousands of micrometers. At cloud tops pristine small columns and plates are predominant, whereas at the lower part of the cloud bullet rosettes and aggregates are most common.

What it a high altitude cloud made up of smaller clouds?
cirrus
Why are clouds made of ice crystals rather than drops of water?
Many clouds are made up of ice crystals because they are at high altitudes. The higher the altitude, the colder the temperature. Cirrus clouds are primarily made out of ice crystals, since they are located high in the atmosphere.
What are clouds made of and how high are they off the ground?
Clouds are made of water that has dried up and become water vapours. These vapours rise into the air and cool down into clouds. When the clouds are completely cooled, it will rain. Clouds can be at a varying height, depending on the vapour density.
