Mount Washington Alpine Resort is a ski area in Canada, at about 1,483 m. Its mapped area is about 3.9 km across, with 119 marked runs and 10 lifts (about 50 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 558 cm of snowfall a season, 59th of 3,069 worldwide and 7th in Canada. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2020/21 (827 cm), brought more than 13 times as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (60 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 188 cm.

Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

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
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 January. March brings 59% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Canada (79%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 111 cm, more than the median of 32 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 558 cm, and 5 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2014/15 with 60 cm; the biggest was 2020/21 with 827 cm (13.8 times as much). For 28% of the 171 ski areas in Canada, the leanest winter was the same 2014/15: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.

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.
