In Finnish that snow is called ’hankikanto’ which is loosely translated as snow that carries you. As in inuit languages I recommend reading Miss Smilla’s Sense of Snow) Finnish also has dozens of ancient words for snow, most probably forgotten by younger generations.
Though there was a time in my life, long ago, that I downhill skied somewhat regularly, I've only been cross country skiing once. And I was terrible at it! I kept toppling out of the tracks, crashing into the crème brûlée on either side.
I hope your lift-mate's nose didn't get stuck like that. LOL!
Very little snow here in Australia but I have snowshoed and tried a little downhill skiing. It’s such a different environment. Our snow is usually slushy. It always amazes me when I see videos of fine powdery snow! But I understood the crème brûlée reference. Thanks for expanding on it further. Enjoy your day. 🤗🤗

I need to ride the chair again with that guy, there’s so much more to cover! Thanks Piia ❄️
