    European Snow Report FAQ

    Base and upper snow depths refresh daily from each resort's official source where available, with Perplexity Sonar filling gaps. Last-update timestamps are shown on every card.

    Use the sort by snow depth at the top — the answer changes weekly during the season, typically rotating between the French Northern Alps, Vorarlberg in Austria, the Swiss Bernese Oberland and the Italian Dolomites.

    Above 100 cm of upper-mountain base is generally excellent across all terrain. 60–100 cm is solid for groomed pistes. Below 50 cm usually means thin cover off-piste.
