Default do mud slingers make good snow tires?

i was wondering it mud slingers make good snow tires for powder, and crusted over snow where when you try to climb you dig in and get stuck. i would prefer mud slinger over sand paddles if they work well because they are taller than paddles. any other good and easy ideas out there would we appreciated.

I got swampers and they work great in snow 4" or deeper,on packed down city streets they can be a handful til you groove and/or sipe them then they are fine.
