Chelgerd Ski Resort
Chelgerd Ski Resort is a ski area in Iran, at about 2,444 m. Its mapped area is about 0.8 km across, with 1 marked run and 2 lifts (about 0.8 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 432 cm of snowfall a season, 129th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 1st in Iran. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2018/19 (755 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2017/18 (197 cm). March still brings 115 cm on average, close to February, its snowiest month.
Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.
Elevation of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.
We do not show a snow depth here. The weather model we use reports snow lying on the ground — it knows nothing about grooming or snowmaking, and it is not the base depth a ski area publishes. In Japan we can check our figures against 234 weather stations. Outside Japan there is nothing to check them against, so we do not print a number we have not verified.
How much snow it gets

When it falls, and how winters differ

Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
Runs and lifts
Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.

The shape of the mountain
Which way the slopes face
100% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
