Hey Mort ever spent the night in a quinsy?

A quinsy is a temporary survival shelter, a place to stay warm out of the winds, should you get lost, stranded or stuck in the North. You start by shoveling a pile of snow (the bigger the better), patting it down and digging out your shelter. If you really needed it for survival, you would use pine or spruce boughs to make a bed. I can't explain it but it is just really warm under all that snow. Generating heat inside the quinsy melts a layer of snow which later hardens into an icy crust, and a much more solid structure.

Id bet a thousand, you'd like to visit. ;-)
