Natural generation[ | ]

Highlands Snow Layer naturally generates in the Arctic Peaks biome on top of Aether Grass as single layers.

Snowfall[ | ]

In the Arctic Peaks biome, snowfall will cause single Highlands Snow Layers to generate randomly on blocks with the proper conditions (such as light level). Highlands Snow Layer will not generate on Highlands Ice and Highlands Packed Ice.

Trivia[ | ]

When Highlands Snow Layer is placed onto the same block as some plants, whether by the player or by snowfall, the plant will have the snow on the ground with it.
