Weather and Man Made Snow in Sierra Nevada
On an annual basis, Sierra Nevada's average frozen precipitation is 75cm.
This natural weather-created snowfall is helped along with 25 snow guns or "cannons" on 30km of piste - that's over 35% of the total length of Sierra Nevada trails.
Off-piste snowboarding and sking is allowed and of course this has the secondary effect of reducing the wear and tear on snow condition on the pisted runs.
