The diagram illustrates the process that is used to build an igloo from snow.
Overall, there are five main stages in this process, starting with finding an area covered by hard-packed snow and ending with covering the hole with snow blocks.
In the first stage of the process, after a surface of hard-packed snow is found, a snow saw is used to cut large blocks to the appropriate size to build the base. After that, the edges of the blocks were smoothed with a saw and placed in a circle, built upward, and a hole was dug under the wall for an entrance. Next, a slightly large block is precisely shaped and placed on the top of the igloo.
In the next stage of the process, snow is shoveled onto the outside of the igloo and is packed into all crevices, while the inside of the igloo is smoothed by hand. Any excess snow is also shoved out.
Finally, a hole is dug in the shape of the entrance, then covered with snow blocks to complete the igloo.
