i'm a snowmobiler, and I was wondering what type of snow shelter would be most practical to attempt to build with 1 to 2 hours, tops, of day light left. not wanting to start sweating, evergreens available, plenty of snow, some basic gear in your pack, such as shovel, knife, saw, fire equipment, food water and steel cup, rope, string, bailing wire, etc. 1 man or a party of 3 does that change the shelter type. do you go for the pit, cave, evergreen, spend the time and energy for a big fire? Assuming you have to spend 1 night at least, prob. not more.
