quinzhee
A quinzhee or quinzee is a shelter made by hollowing out a pile of settled snow. This is in contrast to an igloo, which is made from blocks of hard snow. The word is of Athabaskan origin,〔''Allen & Mike's Really Cool Backcountry Ski Book: Traveling and Camping Skills for a Winter Environment'', Allen O'Bannon, illustrations by Mike McClelland, Chockstone Press, 1996, ISBN 1-57540-076-6, pg. 80-86.〕 and entered the English language by 1984. ==Uses==
For fun or for winter camping and survival purposes, it is possible to construct a quinzhee, also known as a snow shelter, by gathering a large pile of snow and excavating the inside. The name "quinzee" or "quinzhee" comes from the Athabascan First Nations People.
