The Last Iceberg is Team Alaska's entry in the Budweiser International Snow Sculpture Championships. This team reproduced a sculpture (right) by an Aleut artist depicting an Aleut in a kayak who is hunting a polar bear perched on top of a shrinking iceberg. The bear, in turn, is taking the fish out of the hunter's kayak.
This snow sculpture captured one of the two artist's awards and won the People's Choice award.
The photo on the left shows the sculpture under construction.
The three photos above show some of the detail of this sculpture. The photo on the left shows the bear licking the fish. the center photo zooms in on the bear's claws. The photo on the right shows the Aleut trying to kill the bear while leaning far out of his kayak.
The three photos above show more of this nice snow sculpture. The photo on the left shows the top portion of the sculpture with the polar bear on the iceberg with a pole symbolizing the North Pole rising above him. The center photo shows an overview of the sculpture from one side with other snow sculptures in the background. The photo on the right shows the bear's butt with one of the ski peaks of Breckenridge rising above the competition.
