    That depends on how "hard" the snow (or ice) is, among other things.
    Here's some of my winter unicycling fun from over the years:

    What kind of uni do you ride? My brother has a 20" trials that has
    somewhat hard of a time in anything over 3" of snow whereas my 24"x3"
    muni has no problem in that much snow. On a uni with all the weight on
    the one tire you go through the snow with much more traction than a
    bike. (unless you have a bald tire)

  6. My 26x3 seems to be a snow machine to me. I like riding on the groomed
    ski area trails which are hard packed enough to float on, I recommend
    at night with a full moon or a light onboard🙂 . Ocassionally I run
    into a snowcat driver who can't believe his eyes.

  7. Winter just adds a barrier between you and the concrete, you may meet
    this barrier a bit more but its safter tahn the ground so thts fine.
