Snow days at Romania’s ski resorts, winter by winter since 2004
Băișoara (Buscat): snow days in every winter since 2004
Băișoara (Buscat): in winter 2025–26, the 1 km satellite map showed snow on the runs on 87 days between December and March. Since 2014, on the same map: 114 days a winter on average, from 87 to 121.
Here the comparison with ERA5-Land shows a jump of 10.5 days at the 2014 map change, so a comparison with the first decade would be uncertain.

A resort means its alpine ski runs in OpenStreetMap. For each map cell, the length of run passing through it was measured; a day counts as “snowy” when cells marked as snow-covered hold at least half the length of the runs. Bâlea Lac has no mapped runs and is a single point at the lake. Durău and Cavnic have few mapped runs.
