How do you get experience towing in snow then? Some people tow in snow or they can't pay the bills. Point being, there is a first time for everything. I've towed a whole lot of miles in snow; due care, proper equipment, is all good advice; but towing in snow ain't the end of the world.
The OP is a recreational tower. Those that tow through the snow to pay the bills are not doing it for recreation.
The OP has no experience driving in the snow. Leaving from Texas to find a white Christmas is not the time to learn snow towing.
Honestly there is no need for an inexperienced driver to tow in there snow unless its a dire emergency.
If the OP wants to learn try going to a vacant lot during a snowstorm and practice in a somewhat controlled environment vs. attempting a mountain pass in the snow just for fun.
I have been through the snow once. I reduced my speed and took my time and had no issues. But I was also prepared to pull over and wait it out or leave the trailer if necessary. It was not fun and I was no doing it just for the experience. I was also not attempting to cross a mountain pass either
