Willow Park Nordic Ski Trails
Willow Park Nordic Ski Trails is a ski area in United States, at about 2,578 m. Its mapped area is about 3.5 km across.
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 111 cm of snowfall a season, 2,224th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 340th in the United States. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (170 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2018/19 (71 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (25 and 21 cm on average).
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.
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.
