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

Wanfeng Tonghua Ski Resort, in China, runs from 414 m at the base to 954 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 3.2 km across, with 27 marked runs and 9 lifts (about 21 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 45 cm of snowfall a season, 2,845th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 30th in China. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2019/20 (77 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2018/19 (21 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (11 and 8 cm on average).

78% 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.
