Under protective coverings, piles of snow can be stored for a surprisingly long time, allowing ski resorts to mitigate some of the lack of snowfall caused by climate change.

This is not the future we were promised but the future we deserve.

Can't they just ship in the snow from elsewhere?

But seriously I have considered this. The snow cannons are pretty poor, I assume it is partially because they are low but I haven't had anyone confirm this? So can't you have a really big one that pumps out snow from a great height and makes a pile of better snow. Then use a digger to transport that snow around the mountain?
