20th Annual Budweiser International Snow Sculpture
Breckenridge is the meeting place for 16 teams who come from all over the world to carve their creativity into 12 foot tall, 20 ton blocks of snow. The four person teams have 65 hours and anything but power tools to make their snow come alive.
With teams from Canada, China, Czech Republic, Italy, Lithuania, Mexico, Mongolia, Russia and the USA, the artistic themes range from strong political statements to whimsical winter wonderlands.
