snowscapes
White winter panoramas
Snowscapes are winter landscapes covered in snow, or artistic depictions of such scenes.
The word works like seascape or cityscape—describing both the actual terrain and representations of it in painting, photography, or other media: The gallery featured dramatic snowscapes of the Rockies.
We drove through pristine snowscapes on the way to the cabin.
