Snow Sculptures

January 31st, 2010 by Elizabeth · 5 Comments

Saturday we went to Breckenridge’s Snow Sculpture Competition. Teams come from around the world to build these masterpieces. The sculptures were absolutely incredible and the weather was beautiful. The detail of the art was mind blowing. Please bare with all of the pictures; I was so fascinated it was hard to choose just a few to post. Keep in mind it’s completely pure snow with no internal support.

All of them started out as a huge block of packed snow.

See what I mean about detail work?

Have I mentioned lately that we absolutely love living in Colorado?

    Beautiful! Although I have to turn away or I will be sad that I am in class instead of on the mountain…snow is a wily temptress!
