Poor analogy - actually, igloos and quinzees can be nice and warm (well,
compared to a tent or open air).

Mike,

You snipped off the rest of the sentence, which said, essentially, that
igloos, while effective, are difficult to fold into the kayak. I guess
Ididn't make that part clear.

From what I've read, igloos can be very effective, though I've no experience
with same. I have dug snow tunnels, however, and they are downright balmy if
you are dressed appropriately.
