Some of the ski resorts in the west get over 500 inches annually. The most falls in places like the Pacific Northwest, where there's plenty of moisture to work with. Some of the mountains (Adams, Rainier) hold records for snowfall, with over 1000 inches occurring in one season.

Outside of the mountains, the lake effect snow belts downwind of the Great Lakes receive over 100 inches annually in spots. This is especially true on the Tug Hill Plateau northeast of Syracuse, and up around the Keeweenau Peninsula in upper Michigan. Average snowfall is 200-300 inches annually.
