In the list below, you’ll find every ski resort in North America that has received 300″ or more of snowfall this season.
This strong El Nino year has been a powerful one in the Western USA so far. ย El Nino is on a bit of a break right now, but the damage has been done. ย Over 500″ already at Alyeska? ย Over 400″ at Mt. Baker? ย Over 300″ at 12 other ski resorts? ย Unreal…
As per usual, the northwest dominates this list with the West Coastย taking every spot in the top 10 except for one: ย Wolf Creek, CO. ย If you live in Colorado, it’s time you moved closer to Wolfy. ย 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 resorts’ upper mountain snowfall numbers as posted on their websites as ofย Feb. 10th, 2016.
Kirkwood’s numbers are from the base @ 7800′. Their real number would be higher. Anyone who has skied Tahoe long enough knows the truth.
You missed Snoqualamie Pass / Alpental which has 316″ at nearly the base (3100 feet)
Ah, we checked there and forgot to add it in. thanks!
