Two Story Ice Igloo Build At -47°F

[@kevinsnazz]

Imagine walking out there in the middle of nowhere and coming upon this finished work of art.

[@Naranuru]

..and making it bigger. 😁

[@TheJRomans]

I'd get cozy and pull my weed out.

[@rayrayray7494]

its in alaska ill give him a pass probably not many people passing trew there but a friend of mine died going trew the ice with his snow mobile cause of a irresponsible ice fisher creating a huge hole no marking no cover it takes quite a while for the ice to reform to decent thikness Edit: to be fair to him though it is -47 so will freeze faster and he is present at the hole working

[@Uterr]

And falling down thin ice where the hole was

[@nicholasbizier9234]

I am glad he specified ice igloo because regular igloos are actually made of very densely packed snow cause the air in the snow traps more heat.

[@lauracortes7720]

how do they get the snow packed tight enough that it’s stable ?

[@releasehalflife3]

@@lauracortes7720 snow is ice but little flakes of it thats why they call it snow flakes, when theyre packed together it becomes solid and is strong enough for an igloo but its concidered weak since you can stab a knife through it like butter and make it crumble really easily, if not tamped with its stable a good example is when ur walking on snow and it goes down the air pockets in between the snow flakes are being pushed out and the snow flakes are being pushed closer (that makes the nice snow sound)

[@terrywebster9772]

@@lauracortes7720 The Inuit have many different names for different kinds of snow. The builders will stab a rod into the snow looking for a particular kind of hardness that results from some of the snow turning to ice. It is a certain firmness to the snow that they are looking for - not too soft, not too hard. With that they are assured of a solid igloo. If it will be used long term, then the floor is dug down below the sleeping and eating area, because the cold air will fill that lower section first, and leave the upper area warmer, up to 60 degrees or so.

[@janina8559]

The picture of the Igloo lit up and the Northern Lights as the background was the money shot! Sell it to National Geographic and travel mags and probably retire! Most gorgeous thing I have ever seen 💕

Really just is so beautiful to see what a dedicated person can do! I mean this should be shared with motivational speeches.

And 2000 years later we haven't lost the ability to build great things like this! It's so beautiful!

A labour of love. Definitely not an emergency shelter. You need carpeting in the hallways. Please be careful on the ice. Maybe pry the blocks free from the water, rather than stomping them free?

Awesome! It is amazing how a person can build a two story igloo with a wood burning stove to keep warm and for cooking.
