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.

Estación de Esquí de Manzaneda, in Spain, runs from 1,503 m at the base to 1,762 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 2.2 km across, with 28 marked runs and 6 lifts (about 13 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 143 cm of snowfall a season, 1,761st (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 21st in Spain. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (430 cm), brought more than 7 times as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (59 cm). March is usually the snowiest month, with about 50 cm.

West 2%

97% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
