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.

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
Sovereign Lake Nordic Club is a ski area in Canada, at about 1,659 m. Within 2.2 km of its centre the map shows 1 marked run (about 0.2 km of piste).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 113 cm of snowfall a season, 2,196th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 132nd in Canada. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (156 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2018/19 (75 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (38 and 29 cm on average).
Runs and lifts
Counted from the marked runs and lifts on the map, within 2.2 km of the centre of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
By difficulty
Source: OpenStreetMap (ODbL 1.0). How finely ski areas are drawn varies by region, so treat the counts as indicative. Difficulty uses the European grades, which do not map onto North American green / blue / black.
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.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km in a straight line. Ski areas in the same weather-model cell (about 30 km across) get the same figure.
| Ski area | Distance | Seasonal snowfall | World rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silver Star Mountain Resort | 4.3 km | 132 cm | 1929 |
| Larch Hills Nordic Ski Trails | 41.0 km | 127 cm | 2001 |
When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
The most snow falls in December. March brings 76% of January’s snowfall. That is in line with the median for ski areas in Canada (79%). In amount, March brings 22 cm, less than the median of 32 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 113 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2018/19 with 75 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 156 cm (2.1 times as much). For 28% of the 171 ski areas in Canada the leanest winter was 2014/15; here it was a different one.
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
