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 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

Savin Kuk Ski Resort, in Montenegro, runs from 1,514 m at the base to 2,175 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 1.9 km across, with 9 marked runs and 5 lifts (about 4.2 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 313 cm of snowfall a season, 438th of 3,069 worldwide and 1st in Montenegro. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (575 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2023/24 (165 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 95 cm.

The nearest city of any size is Sarajevo, about 100 km away in a straight line.

79% 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.
