Can any city host the winter Olympics?

Subject to certain Intrnational Olympic Committee (IOC) guidelines, any major city can apply to host the Summer Games. However, locations for the Winter Olympics, which require extensive ice and snow, are much more restrictive as regards available area, climate, and access (Innsbruck, the site of the first Winter Youth Olympics in 2012, had to haul in snow for the Olympics in 1964). Because the Games are expensive, rules now limit host countries to those that would likely not suffer adverse impact from bearing the immense costs. This effectively prevents developing countries from hosting a Winter Olympics.
