You can build a camp fire on snow but it won't burn long. As it begins melting down through the snow, it will eventually be sitting in a hole filled with ice water.

What happens when you set snow on fire?

When you set snow on fire, the heat causes the ice to melt and turn into water before it can boil away. The flames can also vaporize any moisture in the surrounding air and possibly ignite nearby flammable materials, but the snow itself won't burn due to its high water content. Instead, the melting snow will douse the fire if it’s substantial enough, as snow is primarily composed of water. Essentially, you can’t sustain a fire with snow alone.
