Narrative:
Landing runway 28 at pcz; the aircraft departed the runway at a slight angle. Snow on surface of ground was deeper than I believed and slowed gear enough to cause a prop strike and gently tip aircraft on its nose. When aircraft first veered slightly off center; I made the decision to allow it to continue thinking that would be safer and less chance of a ground loop than trying to recover on the runway.
