For many skiers and riders, snow conditions play a big part in determining where they’ll go on their ski trip. Abundant cumulative totals typically translate to a good base and allow vacationers to decide their destination with confidence. Plus, ample snowfall often means an extended season, so it’s possible to squeeze in a last-minute, late-season trip.

Here are some top resorts that have reached the 300-inch mark for the 2015-16 season, plus resorts that are quickly approaching the milestone.
