browsing through the gallery and recent threads it looks like lots of people got out and did some snow shelter building this winter (even here in the UK!)
So lets see your photos of what you got up to in the snow this winter, show us your winter camps and snow shelters and tell us a little bit about them.
Whist visiting friends this winter I got the opportunity to build some snow shelters:
Our Quinzee:
Which sleeps 2 with plenty of room:
And my first Iglukaktok!:
Cutting the blocks:
Getting them in place:
With some expert guidance:
Almost done:
View of the finished roof from the inside:
A raised platform inside for the bed and to allow the cold air somewhere to pool beneath the sleeping area:
Testing the roof (best to do this after you have finished using it as a shelter, just in case!):
