Sasquatch Mountain Resort

Off season Official site

Sasquatch Mountain Resort is a ski area in Canada, at about 1,082 m. Its mapped area is about 2.3 km across, with 36 marked runs and 5 lifts (about 18 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 512 cm of snowfall a season, 80th of 3,069 worldwide and 8th in Canada. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (648 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (207 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (165 and 117 cm on average).

The nearest city of any size is Vancouver, about 87 km away. Below is a link to its official live camera.

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.

50% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
