Since practically all readers want to be armed with the
indispensable facts on igloo building, today's site from
Norwegian Geir Drange, will prove to be just the site they need.
It provides crystal-clear instructions, complete with photos, on
how to construct these sturdy snow shelters.

"Building an igloo is easy and fun. And the igloo is a great
place to spend the night on a small 'expedition' in the
mountains. Much warmer than a tent, and can be built just about
anywhere. Building an igloo will take somewhere between 3 and 6
hours, depending on your previous experience and
level of ambition... This page is a small guide on building an
igloo." - from the website

The web page explains the steps involved, from the modest tools
required -- basically a shovel and a ski -- to determining the
best spot to build. The remaining steps detail cutting and
placing the blocks and finishing the structure, including an
L-shaped entrance. The thumbnail photos may be enlarged for an
expanded view of the construction in progress.
