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.

军都山滑雪场, in China, runs from 102 m at the base to 341 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 1.5 km across, with 8 marked runs and 11 lifts (about 2.3 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 7 cm of snowfall a season, 3,061st (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 180th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2019/20 (16 cm), brought more than 8 times as much as the leanest, 2017/18 (2 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (2 and 1 cm on average).

How much snow it gets
