Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 87 cm of snowfall a season, 2,510th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 5th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2021/22 (126 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (56 cm). March is usually the snowiest month, with about 43 cm.

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.

100% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
