In the morning to keep our bodies moving we worked together to collect sticks that we can use in the future to build fires. They needed to be no thicker than our thumbs and could be as skinny as a mouse tail. 

To stay moving we went down to the field and worked together to shovel together a big pile of snow. This snow pile will then be transformed into a snow shelter, or quinzhee. We waited until the end of the day to dig it out to let the snow settle and condense together. 

Today was cold and all about moving, so we hiked up to the office, filled bird feeders, and then enjoyed some sledding time in the garden. Before we knew it we needed to hike back for lunch. After we fueled up we went to Beaver Pond and found some tracks and followed them. We followed them up through the woods and learned they might be some sort of weasel.  

At the end of the day we dug out the quinzhee and we were all able to fit inside.
