彩虹滑雪场

Off season

彩虹滑雪场 is a ski area in China, at about 2,554 m. Its mapped area is about 0.5 km across, with 3 marked runs and 1 lift (about 0.6 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 25 cm of snowfall a season, 2,939th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 75th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2025/26 (38 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (15 cm). March is usually the snowiest month, with about 13 cm.

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.

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