Snowy Taiga

A snowy taiga is a snow-covered biome that comprises a forest of spruce trees, ferns and large ferns, usually generating adjacent to or within snowy plains.

Description
Snowy taigas are similar to regular taiga, featuring large numbers of spruce trees, ferns, rabbits, white-coated foxes and wolves. Sweet berry bushes are less common compared to regular taiga. Dandelions and poppies can also still be found. The main distinction are the snow layers that cover almost the entire landscape, save for the ground protected by the leaves of spruce trees. The gelid temperature of the snowy taiga means that any exposed water freezes into ice, though lakes that generate within the taiga are often partially protected by the leaves of the trees, meaning lakes aren't usually completely frozen.

Snowy taigas are most commonly bordered by snowy plains, groves, snowy beaches, and regular taigas, and often separated from snowy plains by rivers.

Igloos and trail ruins may generate here, but villages and outposts cannot $$, although $$ they can. Villages generated here use the same architecture as normal taiga villages, but all of the roofs are covered by stacked snow. The water in village farms is frozen, leading to the crops uprooting. Villagers wear the snowy plains outfit. Also in Bedrock Edition, most of the snow layers are stacked, the water has an unique tone and the leaves of the trees become white as in snowy plains during snowfall.
