"I have a all time 4wd drive Audi, a4, manual transmission. I drive over mountain passes to ski in the winter, they can be snowy. I've always had separate snow and all season tires, but now I need new snow tires and am wondering if it is really worth it. Also, are there special characteristics I should be looking for in tires.

That depends on the roads, the snow depth, and the tires. You're looking for wide and deep tread patterns.
