I thought your assessment was an incompetent pilot?
My assessment is the pilot fluffed it for some inexplicable reason, perhaps the bounce, coupled with the new seating position, and it just got away from him. Agree with

JS, be interested to hear the story of how you came to be in the position re your off field snow landing. Another human factors and human fallibility story. Only every operated helos in snow, and all was off airport.
