How the snow check works

1Every day weather stations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland measure snow depth – real centimetres, not a forecast.
2For every run we know its height and compare it with the stations nearby. There is usually more snow higher up.
3This gives “good to go” (from about 15 cm), “marginal” (from 5 cm) or “no snow” – with station, height and date, so you can judge for yourself.
