Domaine Les Monts d'Olmes

12 / 100 Powder Score
Thin ☀️

Domaine Les Monts d'Olmes is a ski area in France. It sits at about 1,606 m above sea level. The mapped ski area covers about 2.5 km². Within 2.5 km of the centre, the map shows 39 marked runs and 12 lifts, totalling about 16 km of piste. Over the last three winters the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 207 cm of snowfall a season, 1015th (tied) 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. 31 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.

Elevation of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.

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.

94% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
