Tundra

Tundras were a snow-covered biome which existed in the game prior to the Adventure Update. They were the precursor of the current snowy plains, but with less trees and few mobs.

Description
Snowy, barren terrain with few oak trees. Ice can be found over water. Snow is common weather in tundras. Tundras generated when the temperature is below 50% and the rainfall is less than 20% and could often be found near taiga. They usually consisted of low plains and gentle hills but in some cases, it could be mountainous. Survival in this biome could be difficult, especially if the tundra is large as trees were rare and snow decreased the area passive mobs could spawn.
