Silver Star Mountain was awash with excitement on Sunday, as the ever-popular ice sculpture competition took place.
Four teams competed, as they were given a large slab of ice to sculpt, beginning on Friday.
鈥淭he teams started carving Friday morning at 10 a.m. and some of them are working on 1.2 minutes of sleep,鈥� joked Winter Carnival executive director Kris Fuller.
On Sunday, finishing touches were still being applied mere minutes prior to the deadline at noon.
The four sculptures each had a unique theme, from doves to dragons and The Mandalorian.
Alexander Avelino, Matt Holman and Amanda Ball carved the top prize ($500 cash), with their Baby Yoda and Mandalorian sculpture. They also took home the people鈥檚 choice award.
SilverStar also hosted over 40 different artisan vendors for a market on Sunday, with live music from Duane Marchand.
