The utilization of natural snow and ice was investigated and the conserving of them for a long term period was found to be possible with simple means. The authors thought that if they could transport natural snow or ice from the highlands to living quarters using simple means, it might be of benefit to people living in dry or massed regions nearby the highlands to obtain not only cold heat but also water. In this paper, the possibility of long distance transportation of ice and water mixture through a pipe using only gravity drive was investigated. The theoretical analysis cleared the possibility of transportation for few hundred kilometers and some characteristic features.
