The Downtown Driggs Association is celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the Annual Driggs Snowscapes â The Art of Sculpting Snow a little differently than past years. There wonât be a competition in which different teams work to create the most beautiful, imaginative, or technically impressive snow sculpture.

Last week a crew from JK Concrete built an extra large form in the Driggs City Plaza and MD Landscaping transported snow into the area.
