I spent about 12 beers being philosophical about this concept and the results are that I believe snow is grippy until it freezes. Once any part of a snowflake turns back to water the grippy properties flip to their slip state. While in flake state the angles and barbs dig into surfaces and create other worldly levels of grip. I have friends who will still reference this crazy rabbit hole I explored.
