Yes they have Snow-Covered Islands. Welcome to 1995.

That looks less like a snow-covered island and more like... a glacier.

I personally think the whole concept of snow-covered lands was stupid, but I love this art so I gave it a 5/5...

This art can't be descirbed with words. It's just so... beautiful.
... I just only hope they were full-art lands.

I sure hope we'll revisit this mechanic someday, the next time with some more powerful cards that'll do a better work of doing snow mana justice.

Never was a fan of the snow mechanic. Need the snow lands to make random abilities work.

Love these just for the art.

EDIT: Can these be targeted by cards like Boiling Seas?

Nope, because Boiling Seas doesn't target at all. :) It will destroy these, though. If a card says "Island", it means "land with the subtype 'Island'". If it meant the card Island in particular, it would say "Destroys all lands named Island". Boiling Seas would also destroy Breeding Pool, Underground Sea, or every land if Stormtide Leviathan is out. :)
