*The default version of Snowbound has been removed from all [[Matchmaking]] playlists except [[Lone Wolves]] and [[Rumble Pit]]. It has been replaced with the Hard Core (HC) Snowbound in which a few changes have been made, which deletes the Spartan Laser and Shotgun from the map and puts the Beam Rifle on the original Shotgun spawn point. Each base now has a [[Bubble Shield]], where the default Snowbound had only one base with a Bubble Shield and another with a [[Power Drain]].

*It is possible that the Maulers on this map may eventually be removed from this map, since Snowbound is a relatively a close-quarters map. The two Maulers on the map (near the rocks that are near the Ghost and another Brute Shot spawn), are sometimes used by players to compensate for the Shotgun when they do not have access to it.

*Snowbound now has another alternate variant, called Boundless, which excludes the shield doors that lead into the ice caves from the bases and also changed weapon spawns. It was announced in Bungie's 8/22/08 weekly Update and will appear in the September playlists as of September 16.
*Some players call the tunnels underneath the map "Gopher Holes' because of the habits of many players who throw grenades in the holes to clear them out.

*Inside one base you may notice that there is an array of lights and you may hear a humming sound, however inside the other base it seems to be "broken" and icicles hang from the archway above the door also, the sphere in the center of the room is off axis and is not light up.
