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.

The five add up to the 100-point Powder Score: more fresh snow, more on the way and colder air all push it up. How we measure

将军山滑雪场, in China, runs from 847 m at the base to 1,319 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 5.4 km across, with 22 marked runs and 15 lifts (about 22 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 52 cm of snowfall a season, 2,808th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 25th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2023/24 (100 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2018/19 (27 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (15 and 13 cm on average).
