Saw this mentioned on a History Channel show about the benefits and perils of snow .... takes about 2 hours to complete the snow shelter / igloo . Awesome for winter camping don't you think.

Igloos are hard to make here in the Northeast but the quincee is the one of the best shelters if you have time and materials. Igloos are hard to construct because of the snow consistency. Those are great pictures.
 
Very cool. I live in a cold place yet have never done winter camping. I plan to change that fact! This looks like a neat tool.
 
That is neat. It is tough to build them within the tree line where the snow is seasonal, but those are great examples.
