Snow Carving
 

Ely, Minnesota holds an annual Winter Festival. This snow carving symposium, which is not a contest, brings international professional snow carvers together. Each carving team is given an 8 or 12 foot block of snow to carve. Carving starts on Thursday and is completed by Sunday afternoon. For more information about the Winter festival click on the Winter fest logo to the right.

2009 Ice Dancing
2009 Ice Dancing

This carving stood eleven feet tall. We began by adding three feet to the top of the 8 foot block of snow. Carving was great to begin with, but as the event wore on it grew warm and adjustments had to be made in the plans. Our adjustments proved futile when her arms fell off. The weather continued to get warmer and two days after the carving was finished most of the carvings in the park fell.

2007 Elephant Fun

2007 elephant
 Our elephant stood nine feet tall. It was a bitter cold year for carving averaging 30 below. The cold made the snow exceptional, but staying warm a more of a challenge. In sub zero temperatures the snow becomes like sand in the snow blocks which allows for more detailing.

2005 Pelican
2005 Pelican

The pelican stood eight feet tall. It was a tough year for carving. The weather turned warm and the snow became mush. Many of the carvings in the park fell, or parts fell off right away and new carvings had to be created from what was left. At times carvers were standing in water while they carved. This carving was originally titled "Got Ya" and had a fish hanging out of its mouth; it fell off right away.

2004 A Snowy Ride
2004 A Snowy Ride This carving was eight feet tall, four feet wide and sixteen feet long. The temperatures never went above 28 below this year and it was windy. The snow was exceptional, which allowed for taking risks. At one point the scarf projected three feet off the back in mid air, until Nancy leaned on it. 2004 Team

Carvers: Nancy and Doug Scheibe
 

2003 Penguin Song
2003 Penquin The penguins stood eight feet tall. It was Nancy’s first year as a professional carver. The weather and snow was good. As we carved we discovered a crack running through the neck of the mother penguin so the position of her head had to be changed. Originally she was  to be singing up into the heavens just like the papa penguin. To support her head we chose to have her kissing her little one. 2003 Team
