Ski Callaghan is a ski area in Canada, on slopes between roughly 1,001 and 1,001 m. Within 5.4 km of its centre the map shows 2 marked runs (about 1.8 km of piste).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 710 cm of snowfall a season, 10th of 3,069 worldwide and 2nd in Canada. Its winters are fairly steady; even the leanest, 2023/24 (558 cm), reached 79% of the average. December brings as much snow as January here (220 and 212 cm on average).
The nearest city of any size is Vancouver, about 99 km away.
Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.
Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.
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 December. March brings 70% 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 149 cm, more than the median of 32 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 710 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2023/24 with 558 cm; the biggest was 2019/20 with 909 cm (1.6 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.
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 marked runs and lifts on the map, within 5.4 km of the centre of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
By difficulty
Source: OpenStreetMap (ODbL 1.0). How finely ski areas are drawn varies by region, so treat the counts as indicative. Difficulty uses the European grades, which do not map onto North American green / blue / black.
