Reported snowfall, snow days and base depths come from OnTheSnow's season history or the resort's own reports. Opening and closing dates are the first and last archived snow report showing terrain open (* = projected). Modeled snowfall is ERA5 reanalysis at the resort's coordinates and is not comparable to the reported column.
