One-man snow cave.—The simplest bivouac for a lone skier provided with a sleeping bag and a waterproof outer cover is the one-man cave. In the shelter of an overhanging conifer or beside a rock or log, or best of all, under a bent-over sapling, a cave can be kicked into unconsolidated snow with the boots, or dug out of packed snow with a cup or cooking pot in a few minutes. The
cave should be just large enough to squeeze into after the lining of fir boughs or the air mattress has been inserted. If a slope is not available a pit can be dug 31/2 feet deep and the cave dug as a drift from the pit. For greater warmth the top of the pit should be covered with boughs and snow blocks.

Snow caves.—Here again there is an opportunity to choose from an infinite number of designs. For simplicity the standard four-man cave only will be described. Its layout is shown in the accompanying illustration. A compacted snow slope at least six feet in depth is selected, preferably a steep bank or drift. A tunnel with arched roof, about three feet wide and four feet high is dug directly into the bank. A small shovel, such as the army trench shovel, or a lighter duralumin substitute, is the
best tool for the purpose, but a satisfactory job can be done with a long knife, or the heel of the ski (but do not pry hard with it). The face of the tunnel is cut into blocks, the lowest layer chipped out and the successive upper layers pried down. These blocks, remaining intact, can be removed by hand and the better ones used for the construction of the wing wall shown in the diagram. Broken blocks can be scraped out of the cave with hands or cooking pots.
