Very cool. :D I disagree though, this could arise from natural selection, we just need to find progressively less complex creations to show there's no irreducible complexity in it's construction. I think Homo Snowens is one of this creature's early ancestors.

Although this specimen was found at the Colorado School of Mines (AKA Golden Tech-who's football fight song was stolen by Georgia Tech-an apochryphal story if there ever was one), it is common to find this and similar thought-to-be-extinct diapsids at the bases of high speed quad lifts that populate Centennial state ski areas. They're well worth visiting (shameless plug here).

I haven't seen a snow job like that since the last time I looked at Evolution News & Views!

Looks Intelligently Designed to me. I don't think snow can take that form just be natural selection.

I think Linus (van Pelt of Peanuts fame) once made a T-rex out of snow. And a complete army in his backyard: "Today the backyard, tomorrow the world!"
