The north ran away with it this year. Alaska, British Columbia, Washington & Oregon dominated. The first ski resort not in one of those regions doesn’t occur on the list until #12. California squeaked 3 ski resorts on the list, Utah got 2, Wyoming got 2, and we got Idaho in there at #22.
It was a great year for the north, a somewhat dismal year for the rest of us. But, starting on June 1st, we can wipe this season away and start anew. Who’s gonna get it big next year? Maybe we should have a contest to see which North American ski resort will get the biggest snowfall total in 2012/13?
The below numbers account for total snowfall received at each individual ski resort during the 2011/12 winter ski season.
