Over the course of a year, the most snow falls in the mountains, particularly in the west where they're higher. Many ski resorts in the Cascades, Sierra Nevada, and Rockies average 300-400 inches annually, sometimes more. The most snow ever recorded was only about a decade ago on Mt. Baker in Washington - 1,040 inches. Other than the mountains, areas downwind of the Great Lakes can receive a lot of snow, averaging more than 150 inches and in places, 200+ inches in locations such as the Keeweenaw peninsula of Michigan, north-central lower Michigan, extreme northwestern PA and southwestern NY, and particularly the Tug Hill Plateau east of Lake Ontario, which holds many records east of the Mississippi.
