What is a good method for creating realistic snow for my bases?

Tons of options. I don't have much experience with snow, but when I get back to modelling next year when I go back home, I intend to grab some woodland scenics snow.

I'm sure you can find a lot more tutorials online if you exercise some google-fu.
