Third Iteration: Quinzee
Prior to this, all the efforts by our team of two (me and my granddaughter) to build a 'snow house' haven't been quite successful. First iteration was never finished because some other kids (it's hard to imagine adults being involved in such an act) wrecked the unfinished project. Then, we attempted to salvage the material, the densely packed snow in the ruins, which I cut into a bunch of building blocks. The igloo that resulted wasn't finished either for some different reason.
However, the future of this quinzee-type dwelling looks more promising. We'll be gradually putting more material outside, and carving out more spacious cave in the inside. Fun job!
