Sunshine and snow making at Killington.

Sunshine and snow making at Killington.

Sunshine and snow making. The only thing that would be nicer at this point would be if the entire mountain were covered in snow by Mother Nature.

It is hard to complain about a pristine blue sky. Once last weekends wet weather cleared away, the last couple of days at Killington have been absolutely beautiful. But there is only so much work outside that needs to be done to prepare for winter. And we are basically there.

Cold temperatures returned to the area last night. And with the cold, the resort restarted their snow making efforts by resurfacing the North Ridge area and Great Northern to the K1. While the resort is not open today, they are visibly making the effort to get the resort back into shape.

When the resort will re-open for skiing and riding is anyones guess. Since it is only early November, it is a little too early to ask people to bring out their snow dances. But as you are going about your early season conditioning program to get/stay in shape for your time on the slopes, practicing a few steps just in case might not be a bad idea......Let it snow!
