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.

Score breakdown
The five add up to the 100-point Powder Score: more fresh snow, more on the way and colder air all push it up. How we measure
Goderdzi Mountain Resort, in Georgia, runs from 1,700 m at the base to 2,338 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 4.6 km across, with 7 marked runs and 3 lifts (about 8.3 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 326 cm of snowfall a season, 378th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 1st in Georgia. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2023/24 (515 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (200 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (89 and 81 cm on average).
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.

Which way the slopes face
64% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east; plenty of the terrain faces the sun as well, so the lean is modest.

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.
When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
The most snow falls in December. March brings 90% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Georgia (150%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 73 cm, more than the median of 59 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 326 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2014/15 with 200 cm; the biggest was 2023/24 with 515 cm (2.6 times as much).
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
