Are you planning all year round usage or winter weekends? There is a huge difference. Almost any C or B or camper will work for a weekend, you just have to learn how to do it, in winter/cold months. If you are talking full time, then that is a whole different animal.
There are some units that are better designed for cold weather, than others. How deep are your pockets?
From Canada there are Big Foot C's and Triple E Regal..both have a cold weather capability. Thermal windows, high R insulation, etc.
From the US, there are lots of choices..Lazy Daze, Tiger, Born Free, to name 3.
You need to figure what you best case scenario is. Some have more living room than others, but if you are weekends only, then any of them will work. It really gets down to $$'s. You can easily spend a hundred grand..or $5,000 and do all of the camping, boondocking, skiing you could ask for. Again...what are you going to do with it?
Take a look at the Public Lands, Boondocking Forum for ideas. And ask people that you see parked. Not the fancy rigs...the hardcore looking ones. Phone a ski shop..call several and ask around for someone that does that stuff..snow camping for skiing. THAT, my frind, is a whole different thing.
Gary Haupt..and I live up north.
