Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I get the impression that US and Canadian resorts focus on adding the depths of each snowfall during the winter, but European resorts measure the snow lying on the ground at any time.

I'd be surprised if Fernie gets to an average of 27ft snow thickness on the ground, but maybe someone knows the facts on this?

St Anton seems to regularly hit 4 or 5 metres lying snow on the Valluga, but I'm not aware that there's much glaciation up there. Anybody know?

Yes I was perhaps a bit hasty there David, I assumed that was a cumulative figure. However, according to someone who should know in a good year Fernie can get 5 metres of lying snow on the tops.

As far as I'm aware St Anton isn't a glacier but I have seen snow on the peaks in summer around Innsbruck.

DB. Could you pop up the Valluga this summer and have a look for us? They might even run the cablecar for you. Otherwise you'll just have to hike it.
