@@papabear9481 ok, but I just asked for a country/state... but still thanks for the information.

3 things: 1) Any Canadian who's ever shoveled snow would tell you -15 C is too warm to be wearing a bunch of winter gear; and 2) An igloo's entrance is typically met with a drop in elevation at the entrance (think a small pit) which catches cool air and provides shelter from wind, and must contain an elevated area inside that gets you near the roof where the warmer air is (fun fact, your body is what heats up an igloo); 3) Your body heat will naturally cause the inside to form an ice layer wich will seal the gaps naturally, no need for a slush mortar. Anyway hope this helps. (Of course I know this isn't a long term structure, whereas my tips 2 & 3 are most practical in a long term structure)

I love this. You basically just lived one of my childhood dreams. Fort in the woods made from sticks was my number 1 childhood dream. They never turned out well even though I tried to build them all the time.

In Scandinavia, they spread a layer of evergreen boughs on the floor and lay a carpet over that, then build a small entranceway out of wood with a peaked roof and a little door. The latter is saved from year to year.

I live in central New York east of Syracuse, in the hills, just south of the Adirondacks. My son built an igloo in our large side yard one winter. He and a friend played in it, no heat source, but dug in-the snow enough to put in sleeping bags, a tarp base and blankets under sleeping bags. I was up all night worrying, but they slept in and had a great time!

Unfulfilled childhood dream of mine. Way to make it happen!

Love it! I used to build igloo's in North Idaho and found it much easier to mark out a big circle in the snow then pile all the surrounding snow on top and pack it solid as you go. Before you know it you have a solid dome that you can then dig out into an igloo (even if you have to wheelbarrow in some extra materials from the neighbors yard;) ❄️

This was awesome. I chuckled when I saw the TV on the ice table

I can just see the HOA having a collective gasp. A couple of pointers from when we did it (on a much smaller scale) under the supervision of a guy from Ungava: if you build a spiral (so you start with thin, but slightly angled bricks of snow) then the compressive forces as the snow settles will actually reinforce the iglou. Build a platform (of snow if you don't want to do earthmoving) off the ground to get the living quarters closer to the roof where it's warmer. And have a long (at least 3 metres) tunnel to get in, that should ideally be below ground, in order to stop heat escaping out the doorway. Final advice: get yourself a loved one to share it with you, body heat will bring that internal temperature up past 3º.

Tiny recommendation... mention the temperature units when you give the stats.
