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.

엘리시안 강촌, in South Korea, runs from 90 m at the base to 258 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 1.5 km across, with 8 marked runs and 6 lifts (about 4 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 22 cm of snowfall a season, 2,963rd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 11th in South Korea. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2023/24 (40 cm), brought more than 6 times as much as the leanest, 2019/20 (6 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (7 and 5 cm on average).
