Ski Bradford
Ski Bradford is a ski area in United States, at about 28 m. Its mapped area is about 1.1 km across, with 14 marked runs and 9 lifts (about 3.1 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 100 cm of snowfall a season, 2,370th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 375th in the United States. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2014/15 (149 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2023/24 (49 cm). February is usually the snowiest month, with about 32 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.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in February. March brings 79% of January’s snowfall. That is in line with the median for ski areas in the United States (85%). In amount, March brings 22 cm, less than the median of 30 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 100 cm, and 5 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2023/24 with 49 cm; the biggest was 2014/15 with 149 cm (3.0 times as much).
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
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.

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.
