In the list below, youโll find every ski resort in North America that has received 300โณ or more of snowfall this season.
This strong El Nino year has been a powerful one in the Western USA so far. El Nino is on a bit of a break right now, but the damage has been done. Over 500โณ already at Alyeska? Over 400โณ at Mt. Baker? Over 300โณ at 12 other ski resorts? Unrealโฆ
As per usual, the northwest dominates this list with the West Coast taking every spot in the top 10 except for one: Wolf Creek, CO. If you live in Colorado, itโs time you moved closer to Wolfy. The place just simply gets the most snow in CO.
Surprisingly, there is no Canada on this list at all.

**listed snowfall totals come directly from each ski resortsโ upper mountain snowfall numbers as posted on their websites as of Feb. 10th, 2016.
Kirkwoodโs numbers are from the base @ 7800โฒ. Their real number would be higher. Anyone who has skied Tahoe long enough knows the truth.
You missed Snoqualamie Pass / Alpental which has 316โณ at nearly the base (3100 feet)
Ah, we checked there and forgot to add it in. thanks!
