The hill leans towards snowboarders, with SOYJOY Park setting out features across three lanes and a big kicker in front of the restaurant. Up top, the Romance area leaves a wide slope ungroomed, and on fresh-snow days that is where people head.

What was actually measured nearby
Total snowfall from December to March recorded at the 九頭竜 weather station — 3.6 km from this ski area, 253 m below its mid-slope.
| Three-season average | 561 cm |
| 2023/24 | 496 cm |
| 2024/25 | 764 cm |
| 2025/26 | 424 cm |
The figure calculated on this page is 339 cm.
A weather station is not a ski slope. We picked one at a similar elevation, but it stands in a valley or a village. More snow falls on the mountain above it. We have not tried to guess how much more.
