Thanks for the suggestion. We are going again this year. With over 10 feet of accumulated snow this year, we should have plenty of places to dig a great snow cave.
You will need a lot more snow than one foot. If you are not in the mountains (we had about 6 feet). You can make a snow pile and then dig into it. There are some YouTube videos that show how to do that.
With the guy on the video digging and me removing the snow from the mouth of the cave it took about 2 hours. This cave slept three people very comfortably.
We did sleep over. There were three of us and it was warm in their. It was about 40 degrees.

Sweet vid!! Thanks
A little recommendation though, I usually use a wood saw or something in order to cut the snow a little easier. That might make it go faster.
