Hike and rest of the gang..the TV and showers are down the street at our house!..this is the work of a younger fellow who's home serves as a depot for the camping gear used by a local club that takes "city kids" out camping.

he has a open house for the neighbors and we drop by for cocoa and snacks and a look at his snow huts.he does this every year and with all the snow we have he really got into it.
he and his family and friends have sleep outs,with three of these there is lots of room.i would say they are about six feet high and maybe 10-12 square.the snow this year was just right for making blocks,he did a demo for us and it took just a minute with a plastic snow shovel to carve one out.he uses a grass sickle to dig and shape some parts and has glass windows with curtains on the sides.


lots of smoke in this last photo but it will give you an idea of the size and layout of this neat winter project!!
