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.Snow report on the official site ↗
Spiazzi di Gromo, in Italy, runs from 1,159 m at the base to 1,691 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 3.5 km across, with 16 marked runs and 5 lifts (about 8.5 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 170 cm of snowfall a season, 1,416th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 104th in Italy.
