14 / 100 Powder Score
Thin 🌤️

Parque de Nieve Primeros Pinos is a ski area in Argentina. It sits at about 1,611 m above sea level. The mapped ski area covers about 0.6 km². Over the last three winters the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 222 cm of snowfall a season, 915th (tied) of the 3,112 ski areas we measure worldwide. The model runs well below what resorts report, so the ranking is the meaningful part rather than the centimetre figure. 2 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.

Elevation of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.

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.

The tick marks the median across the 395 Japanese ski areas. All four bars run the same way — longer is better.

The quality score deliberately excludes how much snow falls — it uses temperature, frequency, rain and wind. Snowing a lot and snowing well are different things.

When it falls, and how winters differ
