i would love to see a timelapse of the creation of one of these. reminds me of the sand drawings that buddhists do, knowing that your creation will be wiped clean.

I'm curious how he kept oriented.... any feeback from a remote mounted camera or just careful repetition of small geometric structures?

I did that with my meadow snow surveys... but it looked more like a drunk fool who had to take a big rest every 50m.

If he would have walked that far in a particular direction

Nice! That made my morning.
In a couple of shots, I noticed x and y axis lines, presumably as reference lines.

There are several YouTube videos showing Simon Beck making these designs.
He uses a topo map/compass/landmarks (natural and other) and a huge amount of talent.

So do we know that he doesn’t use a GPS? It would still be impressive.
Without a GPS c’est claire pour moi - nous avon un idiot savant.

Amazing what people will do for their drone.
Personally I like rincon’s take on designs in the snow.
