While more snow is probably a good thing, here is what Chama looked like before the 1991 rotary run.
And before the 1993 rotary run.
And Chama was bare for the 1997 rotary run. But go far enough up the mountain and there will be snow, usually a LOT of snow. The main advantage of more snow around Chama would be the possibility of shots west of Cresco which are more accessible from the highway.
