Ice Ice Baby


Although it is cold in our area, take a look at the Fairbanks Alaska Ice Festival. At the festival, teams compete in different ice sculpting competitions such as the multi-block competition featured.  Teams are composed of two to four sculptors. Each team is given 10 blocks of ice. Each team sculpts a minimum of 46,000 pounds of ice. Teams use hand and/or power tools to cut and shape the ice and may work around the clock if they choose. The sculptures created sometimes attain heights of more than 25 feet. Visit Ice Alaska for more info.
