Igloo Build 2024 is CANCELLED. But wait, join us for SNOW SCULPTURES!
Igloo Build 2024
Build a snow sculpture!
Igloo Build is cancelled.
Snow mounds are ready for carving!
Please note that Igloo Build is CANCELLED due to inadequate snowpack!
Upon the advice of our Igloo expert, Dr. Norbert Yankielun, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Igloo Build.
According to NOAA, we are experiencing a warmer than normal winter season. Despite the appearance of ideal snow currently on the ground, this season has produced infrequent and insufficient snowfalls. Additionally, the multiple freeze/thaw cycles have caused the ice crystals to metamorphose, and the rain has saturated the snow, causing the snow to lose much of its strength. This causes the snow to become difficult and unsafe to cut and stack into igloos.
But wait! If you still want a snow-based experience, come to the Montshire for SNOW SCULPTURES!
We will have large blocks of snow ready for you to carve into animals, cars, mushrooms, buildings, or whatever you can imagine. We will have some tools available, but you are also invited to bring your own tools like trowels and buckets.
Schedule of the day:
10:30 AM– 3:00 PM - Snow Sculptures Open
