04:30As I cut away the sides, every so often the snow will settle and just go whoop.

06:36Let's go.

06:38Let's go.

06:40I don't know.

07:10I don't know.

07:40This is a pretty cozy little shelter.

08:07I'll tell you what, that is a beautiful view.

08:21I've got room to sit down, cook, sleep, and this is perfect.

08:33And it only took me four hours to make this thing which is a lot less time than some of

08:37my other snow shelters.

08:39I don't know.

08:41I don't know.

08:43I don't know.

08:45I don't know.

09:09Oh, this smells so good.

09:11I don't know.

09:13I don't know.

09:15I don't know.

09:19I don't know.

09:23I don't know.

09:39I don't know.

09:41I don't know.

09:43I don't know.

09:45I don't know.

09:57I don't know.

09:59Oh, that was good.

10:09I don't know.

10:11I don't know.

10:13I don't know.

10:15I don't know.

10:17I don't know.

10:19I don't know.

10:35I don't know.

10:37Oh, my God.

11:07Check for leaks and put the hot water bottle up my sleeping bag. Get all nice

11:12and toasty. I'll tell you what this is just one of the best snow shelters I've

11:16ever made. There's a couple key features that are really important to keeping you

11:20warm. First off you don't want your sleeping area to be the lowest point in

11:24the shelter. The cold air tends to collect at the bottom. Another thing is

11:28you want to make sure your snow shelter has lots of corners. You don't want to

11:32allow the wind to blow straight into your snow shelter. Additionally when you

11:36do have a corner make a little extra room so when the wind comes down it goes

11:42past the door instead of being funneled into the door. Likewise on this end I've

11:49got two entrances so that if the wind blows crosswise the wind continues

11:53through the shelter instead of getting funneled down into the shelter. But I'm

11:57gonna get a chance to really test the shelter out. It's supposed to be a

11:59pretty good snowstorm tonight. We'll see what happens. Looks like I had some shit on

12:05my face. The snow here is really soft. Hopefully it'll freeze really good

12:11tonight. Then my stairs won't fall apart. The type and quality of the snow really

12:15affects how much energy it takes to build one of these shelters. This was really

12:20easy stuff to work with so things went really fast. I moved a lot of snow in just

12:25four hours. The inside of this shelter is about five feet wide and the roof is a

12:29little bit over six feet tall. So the very back of the shelter to the mouth is 11

12:35feet. I had to move about 230 cubic feet of snow to excavate this part of the

12:40shelter. So at the bottom of the entrance to the top of the snow berm it's a

12:44little over ten feet deep. But the original surface of the snow was about

12:47eight, eight and a half feet deep. The distance from here at the top of the

12:51stairs to the back of that wall is about 17 feet. Plus there's this little bit I

12:56excavated right here. So my rough estimate is that I had to move about 423 cubic

13:01feet of snow to build this shelter. A little over fifteen and a half cubic

13:05yards. That's the max capacity of a commercial dump truck. I earned my hot

13:11chocolate tonight.

13:17Well it is getting late and it's getting cold. Got some peanuts for a bedtime snack.

13:26Well it's getting late so I'm gonna go ahead and eat some peanuts and listen to an

13:33audiobook and go to bed. But tomorrow I'm gonna do something interesting. I'm gonna

13:38see what it takes to make this tunnel collapse. I know a lot of people have

13:42wondered whether or not these snow caves will fall down on you. And honestly I

13:46don't know. We'll test that out tomorrow. Oh good morning. I'm nice and warm. I gotta get up and make some breakfast.

13:55Oh look at this. Got a lot of snow last night. Oh yeah that's got to be at least a foot.

14:08Consequently the roof has sagged a little bit. It's about an inch or two

14:12shorter. I'm having to hunch over a lot more than I did last night. Snow caves

14:17will actually do that. They'll sag quite a bit over time. If you're gonna use

14:21them for more than one day often you have to re-dig out the roof. If you're a

14:24bit claustrophobic you can make it hard to sleep at night knowing that the

14:28roof is slowly sagging over your face.

14:31All right let's see if I get my pants on. Oh my pants are frozen.

14:54Steel cut oatmeal and sliced spam for breakfast.

15:01All right. This steel cut oatmeal is so good. Got some butter in there, brown sugar,

15:15raisins, a little hot spam to go with it.

15:26Ah it's not bad at all. All right well I'm gonna clean this place up and then we're

15:29gonna go explore outside. We got a lot of snow out there.

15:42All right let's go see what it's like outside.

15:44It's a proper little snowstorm up here. It is really snowing. All of this fresh

16:01snow is gonna make the avalanche danger go through the roof. Luckily we're not in

16:05any avalanche zone so we'll be okay. Above the ceiling right here the snow's pretty

16:09thick but yesterday I could see light shining through in that corner of the cave.

16:13Which means there's less than two feet of snow between the ceiling and the surface

16:16of the snow. You can kind of see what I mean right here. There's this blue color.

16:19That's light shining through the snow right here. You can see that's about two

16:24feet of snow. So I'm really curious to see whether this roof can stand up to 200

16:28pounds of me jumping up and down on it.

16:31I couldn't feel any movement. Yeah it looks perfectly fine from here. Well this one

16:58hasn't collapsed yet but all snow caves collapse eventually. All right I think

17:02it's time to get out of here.

17:08Oh look how deep this snow is. Even with my snowshoes it's going up to my kneecap.

17:13It's probably two and a half feet of fresh snow since yesterday. I got a sneaky

17:18suspicion that my car might be very stuck when I find it.

17:31I think I got some digging to do.

17:48Yeah we got a good solid two feet of snow. I've got about a hundred yards of

17:56unplowed road to go. It's going to be tricky.

18:00I've got absolutely no visibility. Don't need visibility unless we can drive somewhere.

18:17Hey not bad. I got like 75 feet with that. Let's dig it out and try it again.

18:36Try it again.

18:45More power!

18:51More power!

18:56Maximum power!

19:00So I'm going to take my snowshoes and beat a path to the plowed road.

19:19Oh that's a long way to go.

19:30I was giving it a bunch of throttle and it just popped on me.

19:37And I kind of smelled this burning smell.

19:39And now only two of the wheels are spinning.

19:41I think I boogered up the all wheel drive.

19:44Got a gentleman in a big 4x4 pickup who might be able to help get me out.

19:55That's pretty sick.

19:57Oh I'm about to go for a ride.

20:04Oh we're doing it.

20:15Alright man thank you.

20:16Yep thank you.

20:17Hey you too.

20:19That pickup truck was a monster.

20:21If it wasn't for that I would have been here for a long time.

20:24Oh it is nasty.

20:34Oh.

20:35Oh the car is smoking.

20:39I'm so glad you're home and safe.

20:40I was afraid of us.

20:41Yeah.

20:42Look at the car.

20:43It's smoking.

20:44Yeah.

20:45The car looks cleaner.

20:46Yeah it does doesn't it?

20:48Oh Betsy done good.
