It had been about 7 years since we had demonstrated how to build a snow cave, so today we did just that! Tim, Bob & David proved to be great snow cavers. We were making pretty slow progress at first working like moles or gophers, but then Bob promoted all of us to "Snow Excavation Engineers" and then we really made good progress........
We did show that you can do this without any other equipment than what you would normally have on an outing; however, a small packable shovel would be a real asset to carry with you all the time.
Thanks, Dennis
