I don't think you have any idea of the scale of the mound. 74 feet tall over an area of 4 acres. Filtering that would cost at least tens of millions of dollars.
And no need to sprinkle charcoal. Snow mounds quickly turn black once they start melting. There's always a little bit of dirt mixed in with the snow, which becomes concentrated as the snow melts.
