    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.
