February maintains the strong snowfall pattern established in January across most of the USA. Jackson Hole leads at 238cm, with Brighton at 237cm and Squaw Valley at 233cm close behind. The top of the February rankings closely mirrors January, with Wyoming, Utah, and California resorts dominating.
California's Sierra Nevada performs strongly in February. Squaw Valley at #3, Kirkwood at #4, and Northstar at #5 all rank highly. Utah's Alta and Snowbird, while still ranking in the top 10 at #8 and #10, fall slightly compared to January.
Colorado resorts including Breckenridge, Aspen, and Vail appear in the mid table. Stowe and other East Coast resorts appear further down the rankings, reflecting the lower snowfall totals typical of the Northeast.
