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.

Adanac Ski Hill, in Canada, runs from 260 m at the base to 332 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 0.6 km across, with 7 marked runs and 2 lifts (about 1.6 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 122 cm of snowfall a season, 2,067th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 125th in Canada. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2022/23 (161 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2023/24 (77 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 34 cm.

92% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
