SOL-FA Oda ski slopes

SOL-FAオダスキーゲレンデ
Off season Official site

SOL-FA Oda ski slopes is a ski area in Ehime, Japan, on slopes between roughly 988 and 1,188 m. Its mapped area is about 1.1 km across, with 4 marked runs and 2 lifts (about 2.1 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 45 cm of snowfall a season, 394th of the 397 ski areas we measure in Japan. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2024/25 (91 cm), brought more than 4 times as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (21 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 18 cm. Snowfall days average −3.3 °C at mid-mountain, and its snow-quality score ranks 395th of 397 in Japan.

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.

The tick marks the median across every Japanese ski area we measure. All four bars run the same way — longer is better.

The quality score deliberately excludes how much snow falls — it uses temperature, frequency, rain and wind. Snowing a lot and snowing well are different things.

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.

Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 45 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2015/16 with 21 cm; the biggest was 2024/25 with 91 cm (4.3 times as much). For 63% of the 397 ski areas in Japan, the leanest winter was the same 2015/16: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
