When snow is packed down by great force, it becomes denser and more compact. This process is known as snow compaction, which can result in the formation of firn or eventually glacial ice over time. The snow crystals in the packed snow may break and recrystallize, leading to a more solid and uniform structure.
Wind-packed snow that is hard and compacted is known as "hard-packed snow." This type of snow is often used for building structures like igloos due to its firm and durable nature. It can be easily cut and stacked to create sturdy walls and roofs.
A snow fort can be easy or hard to demolish depending on how it was constructed. If it was well-packed and supported with walls and a roof, it can be quite sturdy and challenging to demolish. However, if it was hastily put together with loose snow, it might be easy to knock down.
