I would agree that the snow absorbs, not reflects the sound. I would add that animals are hibernating, birds are gone, insects underground. There just isn't a whole lot outside to make noise.

It is quiet because the snow muffles any sond. There is air pockets in the snow, so when sound waves travel toward you, some get caught in the pockets.
