I can assure you of one thing. If my survival depended on foraging for moss and berries that are burried beneath 4 feet of snow, and the temperature is -61............I'm gonna die.
I just hope you go first. I'm getting pretty darned hungry!

Be careful - the meat's tough and kind of fatty.
nah, it's marbled, well suited for a roast. that's the ticket.

If you're looking at a mostly red meat diet due to lack of available vegetation, the you need to eat the bones, brains, eyes, etc. The body needs a certain amount of fat, especially for optimum brain function. Plants give us the necessary chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals that you can't get from meat alone.
You can also harvest pine nuts, acorn, walnuts etc. (depending on the trees in your area). Nuts are a great addition to a mostly meat diet. The fats and oils would be a great companion to red meat.
While foraging for wild edible plants is impossible under 4' of snow, you can forage before the snow falls. Then you can either can or dry the fruits, berries, plants, etc.
I dry a lot of the fruit I pick during the summer and early fall. I hang it from the ridge beam inside the cabin and let them dry there. Not only does it make then readily accessible, but it also adds a pleasant aroma while they are drying.
I can most of the produce from the garden. I prefer eating the canned veggies, as opposed to reconstituting them from their dried state.
