snow sounds

The snow makes a crunch sound when I walk on it. It reminds me of a film we watched in elementary school about Eskimos. The soundtrack had a lot of walking-on-the-tundra sound, which amazingly sounds the same as walking on the Chicago sidewalk. Could be the work of a foley artist. Still, I keep thinking "I'm walking on the tundra." I guess aural memories are just as strong as scent memories. Atleast it takes my mind off of my numb hands.
