@kinthelt Another good idea is too have the roof as smooth as possible, it will prevent dripping. not like it drips much anyways but just a thought.

@MrGeorgezel so you want to remove the insulating property of the snow by making it icy?
-
Next time you make one be sure youre finished so then yah You should pour some water o it to make it more icy

two tips for the next time you build your quinhzee put only one airhole atleast the sie of a quarter at the top of the quinhzee hot air rises but cold air will not drop down dont make it too big or youll lose the warm air second tip once your inside cover the entrance halfway up with snow so your feet will be warmer :) note you want to have 2 air veltalation holes so you have air flow

It's DanM25456 again. This weekend, I'm planning on sleeping in my quinzhee that I built last weekend. I have the floor slanted up, and 3 big airholes (The shelter about as big as yours). The thing that I'm worried about is if my sleeping bag will get moldy and wet ( I roll around a LOT in my sleep). The floor is all snow, and slanted up( so co2 sinks out). Any advide on keeping my sleeping bag dry?

As long as you dry your sleeping bag out after, you should have no problems. ou can leave it unzipped and open in a well ventilated area of your house/apartment. You can put it in the dryer on tumble. No heat. If the sleeping bag is down, add a tennis ball to break up any clumps that might form.
Depending upon how cold it is, you shouldn't melt the snow around you. If it's really cold outside and the snow melts, it could mean that your sleeping bag isn't warm enough and is letting heat escape.

DanM25456 is right. The entrance should be lower than the floor of the quinzee so it will act as a baffle for the cold and wind coming into the quinzee.
