It hangs like a kite tail, but when it lands in a snow bank...it may wind up leaving just a few inches of string exposed.
I tried this today, and it works just like you said. Doesn't seem to affect the flight of the disc, either. Thanks trifocal.

I try going disc golfing everyday in the winter here in minnesota when it is around 15 degrees+ The way to not lose a disc, is to have a spotter up ahead of you to see where the disc slices in the snow. The other day I had a forehand shot and it skipped right off the ice that was on grass that led me to get par. If it weren't for the ice it would have been a bogey
We shoveled snow off the tees(1-2 inches) the other day and they were still a bit slippery. This really made me hold back on some of my drives, I didn't want to do a faceplant. I thought about putting salt down, but I thought that'd be overkill.
The tape method affects the flight of the disc, thous I choose not to do it. The best method I've used is this. Rub a little snow on the top of your disc(to get it damp) then pour powdered koolaid on it. When the disc hits the snow it leaves an obvious color trail. Very easy to find. I've used this method in 2-3 feet of fresh powder never lost a disc. Plus you can lick your fingers and it tastes good.
