Thanks for the reference, it is interesting reading, but, it doesn't help at all with the above question. Still looking to see if anyone has information about or experience with the SmartVent.

Well they seem to be no worse than ridge vents, which get completely covered with snow and take several days before they re-appear. You don't need ventilation every single day. I would worry about the ice dams, but if they move them up a few feet it should be OK, although somewhat less effective, perhaps.
