白鹿原滑雪场

Off season

No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

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.

白鹿原滑雪场, in China, runs from 684 m at the base to 702 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 0.5 km across, with 2 marked runs (about 0.5 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 16 cm of snowfall a season, 3,003rd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 127th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2024/25 (23 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2022/23 (10 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 8 cm.

Compared with what is nearby

Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. The weather model works on cells about 30 km across; ski areas in the same cell get the same figure, and these numbers cannot separate them.

Which way the slopes face

West 0%

100% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.

When it falls, and how winters differ
