We are gradually updating the design of the individual ski area snow depth charts across SnowJapan, as well as the colour coding of seasons on all charts across the site where applicable (for consistency).
The updated snow depth charts have a cleaner appearance, making it easier to see and compare snow depth data across different seasons. Detailed snow depth figures for every season on a particular date can be viewed by hovering over the chart.
There are hundreds of charts across the site, so this is a gradual process that will take at least several weeks to complete. (There are lots of things going on right now!)
During this period, some charts will have the new design while others will continue to use the existing version.
Thanks to those who brought the readability of the previous charts to our attention. We are always looking for ways to improve things across SnowJapan, and sometimes that means revisiting existing features and putting in the time to make them better.
If you are interested in comparing the ‘new’ with the ‘old’:
