No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear once snow is on the ground or forecast.

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 del Morredero, in Spain, runs from 1,760 m at the base to 2,001 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 1.2 km across, with 10 marked runs and 3 lifts (about 4 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 124 cm of snowfall a season, 2,044th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 24th in Spain. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (281 cm), brought more than 5 times as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (47 cm). March is usually the snowiest month, with about 37 cm.
How much snow it gets
Modelled from weather data the same way at all 3,069 ski areas we cover. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Runs and lifts
Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
The figures are for the whole of “El Morredero”, which the map draws as one ski area.

Which way the slopes face
100% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
The most snow falls in March. March brings as much as January, or more. In amount, March brings 37 cm, less than the median of 52 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 124 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2014/15 with 47 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 281 cm (6.0 times as much). For 38% of the 34 ski areas in Spain the leanest winter was 2015/16; here it was a different one.
