Power your snow blower with either gasoline (for vehicular snow blowers) or electric power. Make sure the energy level is full so that you are able to operate continuously for an extended period of time.
Locate the bottom of a hill or area that's prone to extreme wind that borders your driveway or property. This area is likely to cause additional snow sheets to blow into your property.
Plant brightly colored wooden stakes into the ground surrounding the patch of ground that you wish to protect. These will mark edge of where you wish to contain the snow.
Start your snow blower and methodically cover your entire property, blowing the snow into one central location near your designated patch. Conduct another round of blowing, this time focusing on shifting the snow into a large hill between the wooden stakes.
Build a large hill to protect your property from further snow gusts and pile-up.
Insert the shovel into the bottom of the large pile of snow. If possible, ask your children or friends to help you create an igloo for play. It will take quite a bit of effort so the more people the better.
Continue shoveling the snow from the bottom up, throwing the excess to the side. Carve out a significantly large space to fit a human. Poor cold water along the sides and splash it on the roof of the igloo.
Poor cold water along the sides and splash it on the roof of the igloo. As it freezes it will form a semi-permanent roof and wall coating. Use a bucket of water to produce enough water to freeze a large portion of the igloo. Enjoy keeping out of the cold in your igloo.
