Killington is continuing to expand terrain and todays light snow will only help. Local forecasts are calling for up to 6 inches of light snow spread out over the next 2 days to fall on the area. Around the inn so far we have about 3/4's of an inch. Our chef, who went skiing on the mountain this morning, reported that the peak at received about 1 to 2 inches of new powder with light snow ongoing. He also reported that the little death cookies on the slopes yesterday had been groomed out overnight resulting in a very consistent packed machine groomed granular base with light snow on top. For the weekend, Killington plans to have 41 miles of trails open, the most skiing and riding on the East Coast.
Snow making operations are continuing on Outer Limits, building up the base into large whales. The guns are a little wet today, as temperatures at Bear Mountain are in the high 20's at the base lodge. Snow making is also underway on the Superpipe at Bear Mountain. Killington plans to complete building of the Superpipe to allow it to open this weekend.
