Corralco

48 / 100 Powder Score
Fair 🌦️

Corralco is a ski area in Chile. The terrain spans roughly 1758–1758 m above sea level. The mapped ski area covers about 5.8 km². Within 3.4 km of the centre, the map shows 36 marked runs and 8 lifts, totalling about 39 km of piste. Over the last three winters the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 620 cm of snowfall a season, 30th 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 Temuco, about 96 km away. 4 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.

Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.

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.

54% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.

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.

When it falls, and how winters differ

Month by month

Month by month, the most snow falls in June. September brings 65% of July’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Chile (77%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: September brings 108 cm, more than the median of 54 cm.
