In these biomes, Powder Snow spawns commonly on and around the peaks of the mountains.
Powder Snow will also spawn in a Cauldron while it is snowing in a snowy biome. This snow can then be picked up with a Bucket, creating a Powder Snow Bucket.

Uses
</figcaption></figure>
<p>Powder Snow completely prevents fall damage, providing a slow fall for any entity that falls in. When wearing leather boots, Powder Snow blocks act similar to Scaffolding, allowing players to rise when crouching and jumping</p>
<p>When fully inside the Powder Snow blocks, players will see a thick fog effect in addition to the frozen effect seen in the image above. After being inside these blocks for a few seconds, players will eventually start to take damage.</p>
<p>Once the player walks out of the block, they will move slower until the visual effect (seen above) fades away.</p>
