Oh, I love a walk in the snow, ideally when it is falling, nobody around.
So soothing.
I am not autistic, but do have high aural senses. As a kid, I could hear well above 20khz. Today, that has rolled off due to age, but my discrimination is still great.
Sounds can sometimes move me to distraction. ASMR, for example. I trigger easily and it is fairly intense.
There is something about the crisp air, dampening on sound that snow presents to us, and what little is heard otherwise seems to just stand right out, like incongruent, but not in a bad way. Just there, present.
