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.

Brentonico, in Italy, runs from 1,190 m at the base to 1,581 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 3.6 km across, with 26 marked runs and 11 lifts (about 22 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 89 cm of snowfall a season, 2,492nd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 164th in Italy. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2020/21 (229 cm), brought more than 5 times as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (39 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (26 and 20 cm on average).

73% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east; plenty of the terrain faces the sun as well, so the lean is modest.
