Chateau Shiozawa Ski Area Yoshizato is a ski area in Niigata, Japan. The terrain spans roughly 231–583 m above sea level. The mapped ski area covers about 2.3 km². Within 1.2 km of the centre, the map shows 7 marked runs and 4 lifts, totalling about 5.3 km of piste. There is no settled snow at the moment — the season has not started here yet. Over the last three winters the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 547 cm of snowfall a season, 56th (tied) of the 3,112 ski areas we measure worldwide. The model runs well below what resorts report, so the ranking is the meaningful part rather than the centimetre figure. The nearest city of any size is Nagano, about 74 km away. 1 official live camera is linked below. 129 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.

The tick marks the median across the 395 Japanese ski areas. 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.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in January. March brings 28% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Japan (51%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 57 cm, more than the median of 45 cm.
