Snow sculpting day 2: Art emerging from snow

Sculpting continues in Breckenridge, as the figures start to emerge from giant blocks of snow.

BRECKENRIDGE — Sculptors got down to business on day 2 of the Budweiser International Snow Sculpture Championships, honing, shaving, scraping and carving the giant blocks of snow into fanciful shapes. An all-womens team from Idaho worked on a piece called In Chorus, depicting a group of western chorus frogs draped together in a harmonious clump. Across the path, another team already had the outline of a giant hand with two fingers held aloft in a peace sign, while yet another team was putting the finishing touches on a giant reindeer head.
