A question regarding Elves...

Frodo Baggins- watch out!! There is a Sméagol on this forum. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Just kidding...

Not to be overly nitpicky, but it never says in the books elves can walk on snow.

I won't concede that point without the quote from the book, but...

Yes, it describes that Legolas, as other elves, was agile enough to run on snow, but that is different than walking. Walking up Caradhras I am sure he had to shove through the drifts like everyone else.

Well, being nitpicky myself, how can one "run on snow" without being able to "run on drifts" of snow? All a snowdrift is is unlevel snow.
