Now if that doesn't get you excited about snow... perhaps this photo below from Mammoth Mountain will do so. Note other winter trademarks shown here such as all wheel drive and 4x4 vehicles, roof racks and luggage containers, snowboards, snowboard boots, parkas, snow pants, gloves, goggles and helmets...
Last but not least is the ski resort staple, namely, the gondola, shown below at Mammoth Mountain and made by the Austrian company, Doppelmayr.
FYI: One U.S. registration for Doppelmayr® that includes goods and services in numerous classes, in pertinent part, in International Class #12 (partial list): "Transport and conveyor installations, namely, ski lifts; parts and accessories for transport and conveyor installations, namely, chairs for chair lifts, gondolas for ski lifts; cable railway cars, funicular railway cars, ski lift installations for transporting skiers on the snow with trailing stirrups in the nature of platters or T-bars, chair lifts, ski lifts featuring single and dual cable circulation installations; railway installations and traction operations equipment, namely, railway couplings, railway carriages; aerial ropeways including tramways, gondolas, bi-cable lifts, chairlifts, cars, people movers; installations for parking and storage of cabins and chairs used on aerial ropeways; cable railway cabins in the nature of cars, chair-lift chairs;..."

Yet more evidence of business interests protecting their brands with trademark registrations...
