I'm curious as well to where it was taken.

One other thought is: Are there some extremely High Walls that are now covered in snow and ice.
I live near a beach with cliffs, The cliffs are very light and High. It would be interesting to discover more of this phenomenon
here are some more snow photographs
Snow Japan - Japan Snow Gallery - "Snowy Japan" - Record snowfall in Japan - Winter 2005/6
I notice this one shows how the snow is cleared and dispersed onto the top by the snow machine. sorry I do not know the correct name.
It reminds me of a threshing machine that separates the grain from wheat and the tube that then throws it into another carrier.
In the original photo posted I just could not imagine how the snow was so very High. Perhaps the machine levels it off.
Here in UK we are unaccustomed to much snow so forgive my ignorance
