Breckenridge, Colorado International Snow Sculpture Championships

Breckenridge is hosting the 18th year of the snow sculpture championships which is sponsored by Budweiser.  If you have never been to a snow sculpture exhibit, this is an amazing venue to see.  The sculptures will be on display until Feb 1, 2009.

Artists come from all over the world and can only use hand tools and their hands to build their masterpieces.  They are all given a 12 foot block of snow to create their snow sculptures.
