Or you could watch your disc. I think it is easier to find discs in the snow than the thick schule around here.

F ribbons. They will just piss you off. It isn't that hard to find your disc without one.
it is when there is more than 4 inches of soft snow. Round here if you throw a disc with no ribbon and you can't find too bad for you. No one will help.
One big key is to tape up at room temp and dry discs.
Gonna disagree. The only time there is 4 inches of soft snow is when it is fresh so there won't be any footsteps making it super easy to see the mark. I've lost more discs using ribbons than not using them and then you don't have to deal with that horrible ribbon noise and the air drag.
And you must play with a bunch of a holes if they don't help you.
Blue chalk dust, plus helps with grip
I'd rather lose a disc trying to play in the snow rather than deal with the trouble of using ribbon. How about keeping an eye on your disc while it flies. If its snowing chances are there are no leaves on the trees, making it really easy to watch the entire flight. I like the chalk line powder or koolaid ideas, those would seem to infringe less on disc performance and overall annoyance.
In Minnesota, several players have started using the same LEDs used for night golf attached to the discs in daytime. Of course, we actually have a regular Tuesday "Night golf in the snow" league. It's easy to see the red LED in the snow. In Alaska, some use blue rock climbing powder and powder their disc before throwing which leaves a blue mark on the snow where the disc enters.
