Uenono Ski Area is a ski area in Miyagi, Japan. The terrain spans roughly 247–342 m above sea level. The mapped ski area covers about 0.8 km². Within 2.5 km of the centre, the map shows 10 marked runs and 5 lifts, totalling about 3.4 km of piste. There is no settled snow at the moment — the season has not started here yet. Over the last three winters the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 175 cm of snowfall a season, 1306th (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 official live cameras are linked below. 41 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.
Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.

Live Cameras

How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,112 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
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.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.
| Ski area | Distance | Seasonal snowfall | World rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| Onikobe Ski Area | 8.7 km | 285 cm | 552 |
| Yakurai Garden Ski Area | 18 km | 150 cm | 1574 |
| Hanagasa Kogen Ski Area | 29 km | 388 cm | 189 |
| Green Valley Kamuro Ski Area | 35 km | 280 cm | 574 |
| Spring Valley Izumi Kogen | 35 km | 163 cm | 1411 |
When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in January. March brings 42% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Japan (51%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 26 cm, less than the median of 45 cm.
What was actually measured nearby
Total snowfall from December to March recorded at the 川渡 weather station — 4.1 km from this ski area, 124 m below its mid-slope.
| Three-season average | 263 cm |
| 2023/24 | 166 cm |
| 2024/25 | 382 cm |
| 2025/26 | 241 cm |
The figure calculated on this page is 175 cm.
A weather station is not a ski slope. We picked one at a similar elevation, but it stands in a valley or a village. More snow falls on the mountain above it. We have not tried to guess how much more.
