Those 6 guys don't look THAT heavy :)

How come they don't incorporate radiant heating like they do driveways. I have no experience building in anyplace but socal. We only have to worry about wall colors, none of that nasty stuff that can rot or damage a home. I would install some sort of radiant heating system so the snow will melt off the roof. anything like that out there?

We had a cabin at 7,000 feet. The key is to have a roof with more than a 45 degree pitch. In fact, there should be two pitch angles, with the ridge at around a 45, and the sides much steeper. This will ensure that the snow will not build up, and cave in the roof.
I hate to say it, but a lot of the cabins in these pics have no shutters on the windows, probably no storm door, and roofs that are way too flat. |

Like this shape, but with sheet tin instead of shingles. This is the roof shape that will shed heavy snow.

Yeppers. ^^^
Combined w the fact that many of the homes in the Sierras are empty vacation homes much of the time. You would not want ice dams forming for days or weeks while you're gone. |
Yeah, you want to have a convenient way to drain the water out of the house too. Don't forget to fill the water heater, if so equipped.
