RE: Walking on Water & Snow Carving Competition

Jesus these are amazing - masterpieces. Would not have though tit was possible. These guys are genuine artists of the highest caliber. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing them. Great post : )

Thank you sir! Glad you liked them.

This is a national competition so to make it here means they have serious skills. It's an event we tried to go to a few years ago and it was just to warm so the detail had melted on all the sculptures. It made the event kind of boring that year and we didn't return until this year. I'm so glad we went! It amazes me what these guys can do with a block of snow.

Agreed. It's a shame the spring will melt them.

These guys do their work and you can expect the sun to melt them or idiots to destroy them in no time. Even while teh judging was still going on people were crossing the ropes to get a good photo with themselves right up next to the work...jackasses. Once the day is over the ropes come down and any that might be dangerous are knocked over to avoid them crushing a kid. Which really means all of them come down. Crazy to spend that much time to create something that won't last more then a couple days.

One can only document them before they are gone.
