Build a snow shelter or a digloo (dig out an igloo)

Looking to build a snow shelter? Consider your conditions, snow quality, needs for shelter, and people you have to build the shelter. The other day we got out and got to practice our snow shelter skills. After a quick evaluation of snow depth and quality we decided to construct a digloo. Basically you pile up a bunch of snow and then hollow it out. Enjoy the video, and feel free to post questions, comments, or better ways to make a digloo.
