'''Snowy slopes''' are snowy biomes that often generate on the sides of mountains.

== Description ==
Snowy slopes are similar to [[grove]]s except that no trees generate. It is a mostly barren biome covered in snow, multiple layers of snow blocks and [[strip]]s of powder snow, with steep sides to the north or east also having stone cliffs covered with [[snow layer]]s. [[Goat]]s spawn in this biome alongside [[rabbit]]s. This is the only mountain biome where [[igloo]]s can generate. This biome generates next to groves, most [[snowy plains]], [[ice spikes]], [[plains]], [[sunflower plains]], and [[flower forest]]s. Polar bears can spawn in this biome.{{only|be|short=1}}
