Powder snow features

Powder snow is loose and allows most entities that walk on it to fall or become trapped inside. Some of the exceptions are rabbits, endermites, silverfish, shulkers, vexes and foxes. These mobs can walk on powdery snow without falling.

Other entities get stuck or move very slowly while in Minecraft Powder Snow. Mobs can fall through it, but do not take suffocation damage. However, mobs trapped for a period of time start taking freeze damage. Freeze deals 1 HP damage every 2 seconds for each entity. Players can wear Leather Armor to avoid freezing, and this can also apply to Horses.
