Snowfall is a community-created Capture the Flag map added in the Smissmas 2020 update.
Snowfall is set in a snowy logging area. Snow can be seen falling, Christmas lights can be seen hanging at certain places around the map, and there are presents all over. Snowmen can be seen outside the map along with some candy canes.
Snowfall was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
Locations
Note: If you are having trouble with finding the locations listed here, see the Helpful overview section to see their exact position marked on the map.
- Spawn: Each team has two distinct spawn rooms, both surrounding the Courtyard. One is a small woodland cabin with the Intelligence briefcase on its front porch while the other is adjacent to a secret rocket base. Both Spawns have accessible rooftops on which Engineers are able to construct buildings.
- Gift Deck: The wooden deck outside one of the team's Spawns, on which the Intelligence briefcase rests.
- Courtyard: The main open area directly outside the two Spawns which connects the Gift Deck to the Side Route and the Lumber Building. There is a large tree stump up against the Lumber Building.
- Side Route: A long dirt route skirts the outside of the Lumber Building, leading to the map's central Tree.
- Shack: Located along the Side Route is a small wooden building whose roof can be accessed via special jumping techniques.
- Lumber Building: A large multi-story building located on the other side of the Courtyard, across the Gift Deck. It serves as the main and most direct route from the base to the central Tree. It has multiple connected rooms within and a walkway along the front and above the Side Route, which connects directly to the Tree.
- Battlements: A small room apart of the Lumber Building that is located directly above the Resource Deck. It has a view of nearly the whole central area.
- Side Room: A small room located on the Lumber Building's second floor near the Side Route. It connects the Side Route directly to the second floor of the Lumber Building via some stairs.
- Tree: Located at the center of the map, this huge tree serves as the map's major landmark. It is surrounded by a circular catwalk and connects to the Resource Decks and the second floors of both teams' Lumber Buildings.
- Resource Deck: Two decks on either side of the Tree which have a medium health and ammo pack.

Trivia
- It is possible to see some Christmas lights on top of one of the buildings in the RED base. Upon closer inspection, they connect five wooden deer cutouts and a wooden sleigh cutout, the right-most deer having a glowing red nose.
- Another two deer cutouts can be found outside of the playable area close to each base.
- A total of five snowmen can be seen outside the playable area: one near the RED base wearing A Well Wrapped Hat and a RED Merc's Muffler, one near the BLU base wearing a Ghostly Gibus and a BLU Merc's Muffler, one on the back of the BLU base with a Nine-Pipe Problem, and two near the Tree on the BLU side, one with two yellow Flashes of Inspiration and one wearing a Starboard Crusader.
- The last two snowmen are arranged in a way that resembles the JoJo Approach Internet meme.
