The difference between a boy's ice shack and a girl's ice shack
Share:
One thing people can count on when attending the annual US National Toboggan Championships is that there will be little dwellings on the ice, be it a fish shack, a sturdy tent, or, in recent years, tipis and geodesic domes. Each one of these jerry-rigged little houses makes up "Tobogganville" the once-a-year neighborhood on a frozen Hosmer Pond where friendly folks have a house party and everyone is invited, from here, from away--"it don't mattah!"
Pretty much every one of these little dwellings has always been constructed by the guys. However, 2013 marks the very first year, the girls have taken up real estate in Tobogganville with their very own dwelling. Steve and Ann Pixley created "The Panty Shanty," a feminized ice shack that Martha Stewart would heartily approve. In this gallery, we will show you the primary differences on how the girls put together an ice shack in start contrast to a boy's ice shack (in this case, "Pibbah Glade" owned by Shane Davis and Kenny Campbell).
