Step 3Unexpected Difficulties
1. Perspective: We were originally planning on using a frozen river under a bridge, but as it was too weak we had to ditch it for a spot of land. Due to this, perspective became an issue. It might be beneficial to stomp out the message first or lightly write it in the snow and to assess from whatever vantage point it will be viewed from.
2. Tracks: Deep snow means incredibly visible tracks. For the best results think back to elementary school handwriting charts. You are going to want to walk in tracks only at the tops and bottoms of your letters. Anything else becomes an enormous distraction from what you are trying to convey.
3. Freezing: Even using relatively temperate water, our tools had a tendency to clog and freeze up easily. To battle this, we recommend insulation in the form of duffel bags around sprayers and any sort of thick tape around the hose. Quick heat packets for emergency defrosting might be helpful as well. Working quickly also combats freezing.
