Misery Mountain Ski Hill
Misery Mountain Ski Hill is a ski area in Canada, at about 418 m. Its mapped area is about 1.9 km across, with 31 marked runs and 3 lifts (about 8.5 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 62 cm of snowfall a season, 2,734th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 162nd in Canada. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2025/26 (148 cm), brought more than 5 times as much as the leanest, 2023/24 (26 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (18 and 15 cm on average).
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.

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
99% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.

How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,069 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in December. March brings 87% of January’s snowfall. That is a gentler fall than the median for ski areas in Canada (79%). For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 13 cm, less than the median of 32 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 62 cm, and 8 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2023/24 with 26 cm; the biggest was 2025/26 with 148 cm (5.7 times as much). For 26% of the 171 ski areas in Canada, the leanest winter was the same 2023/24: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
