One of the sculptures that we really liked and voted for was "The Wall".
 |
| We were there the 1st weekend and all the sculptures were not all done yet.The artists here told us that the names on this wall were from Colorado but if we knew of someone they would add that name too. |
 |
| They print the names out on the computer then iron the paper to the ice. |
 |
| Now they can use a drill and follow the lettering on the paper. I think the trick to this is getting the carving to just the right depth. |
 |
| We went back the following weekend and they were further along. |
 |
| Gene had a cousin killed in the war so his name is added to this wall too - Michael Lovato (they spelled it wrong) - but the thought is there. |
 |
| An Eagle under construction. |
 |
| Marine memorial. |
 |
| Soldier's Memorial with Eternal Flame in front. |

That is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for sharing; I can't imagine how much work went in to each and every ice sculpture (wow).

Gorgeous! I'm always in awe of sculpture.
Wow, so cool! I wish I could see this in person, absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing this :)
I'd feel better about the beauty of the memorials of the United States if I knew less about why all our brothers and sisters died.
Here's to a more reasoned approach to geo-politics and the application of our military.
Thank you for sharing these lovely images.
