I think these snow reports for Le Massif are incorrect (I saw them on OpenSnow) but they claim the mountain got 20, 16, 16, 17, 1, 1, 11, 12 inches for the past week (that would be a totally in 1 week of 94 inches which is why I'm calling bullshit)
The mountain's website says 414cm YTD which is 163 inches.

Might be wrong, but I don't think Sugarloaf has gotten anywhere near that much snow. Probably ~100". Wildcat isn't having the highest snowfall year either...

Yup a pathetic 76" for Wildcat. It's the warm ups and rain that have hurt worse though. Wildcat usually holds the snow they get well, but not this year

If you include the chic chocs, they always win. You can ski there until June most years. They get all the same storms as Le Massif and they are higher and colder plus they get most storms coming up the coast.

I'm sure they inflate the numbers like everyone else, but the picture below was taken near Tremblant on Tuesday, right before a 16 inches dump. That roof was bare 2 weeks ago. They've been getting a shitload of snow recently.

Pretty sure those were supposed to be listed as CM, not inches. That would come pretty close to matching what they are reporting.
