Tokusagamine Ski Area is a ski area in Yamaguchi, Japan, on slopes between roughly 550 and 917 m. Its mapped area is about 1.3 km across, with 3 marked runs and 1 lift (about 1.2 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 44 cm of snowfall a season, 395th of the 397 ski areas we measure in Japan. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2024/25 (76 cm), brought more than 4 times as much as the leanest, 2019/20 (19 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 19 cm. Snowfall days average −2.3 °C at mid-mountain, and its snow-quality score ranks 394th of 397 in Japan.

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.
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.
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.
| Ski area | Distance | Seasonal snowfall | World rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| Megahiraonsen Megahira Ski Area | 41 km | 74 cm | 2633 |
| Osorakan Snow Park | 44 km | 116 cm | 2148 |
When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in January. March brings 26% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Japan (52%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 5 cm, less than the median of 46 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 44 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2019/20 with 19 cm; the biggest was 2024/25 with 76 cm (4.0 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.

The shape of the mountain
Which way the slopes face
91% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
