Ki Gondola Station engulfed in snow squall

Ki Gondola Station engulfed in snow squall

It is a somewhat messy pre-winter day at Killington. Temperatures have dropped to the near freezing mark. Very heavy snow squalls have been moving through the area randomly. They have not had much of an impact on the lower elevations, other than if you are trying to drive through one of them, but they are coating upper elevations white.

On the mountain, the resort has resumed snow making operations on Killington Peak along great Northern through Rime and Reason. Snow guns and snow cannons look like they are set up on Lower Bunny Buster for the return to the K1 Gondola, but they were not operating when I visited the mountain at noon. With any luck the resort will get favorable weather through out the week to allow them to resurface the necessary terrain to open again for the season later this week. Let it snow!
