Skied Killington on 2/8 - conditions were excellent and all trails were open although conditions on some of the steeper terrain were a bit sketchy. Even though there was plenty of snow the guns were still blasting. Was my first time skiing in Covid conditions - fortunately a balaclava counted as a mask so given that it was very cold it was nice to have one on. The lodge was open with a few restrictions but it was all good...just thankful to be skiing. Definitely less people skiing these days.

Killington super impressed me today, and I've been skiing there for over thirty years. After spending a super cold day at Mt. Snow yesterday in meh conditions, drove up to Killington and spent all day on super groomers in the warmer sunshine. They really have their act together making due with whatever they've got, and today was fun. They spent a ton of money on diesel and manpower to lay down corduroy everywhere, including sort of flattening the giant whales on Superstar. It's supposed to warm up next week, so that may be the last chance for trees which are not skiable right now.

Right on Benny! So great to read this as I got caught up with work and looking forward to next week at the Beast and was hoping/figuring on them opening up the ? trees sans powder this should be some rockin times in the woods.

Well, they're open right now, but, I wouldn't go in them until this afternoon. Keep your speed under control, and wear your rock skis next week. You'll be watching the snow melt and vanish next week before your eyes. Have fun!
