翠华山滑雪场
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.
翠华山滑雪场, in China, runs from 1,305 m at the base to 1,391 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 0.8 km across, with 1 marked run (about 0.7 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 48 cm of snowfall a season, 2,831st (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 26th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2024/25 (65 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (29 cm). February is usually the snowiest month, with about 15 cm.
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.
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.
Runs and lifts
Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.

Which way the slopes face
Only 0% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. More of the terrain faces the sun.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in February. March brings 71% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in China (127%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 10 cm, more than the median of 6 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 48 cm, and 5 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2014/15 with 29 cm; the biggest was 2024/25 with 65 cm (2.2 times as much).
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
