I don't think it's a question of temperature, maybe wet snow is even better for
sticking to a steep slope.  In any case if the snow cover gets thicker it would
fall off in such a case IMO.  Otherwise glaciers could also grow on very steep
mountains and AFAIK they can only exist up to a certain hillslope.
