3/10/17 Killington
Temps were in the 20s and overcast for most of the day with some snow flurries in the afternoon. I skied open to 2 PM. I started out at the Skyeship base. Probably the first time I had been inside the building in at least a dozen years not that much had changed. They still give 20% off for Pico passholders which was a nice plus since I had planned on working remote that day and didn’t shop discounts.
Overall despite the temperature swings coverage was good. Definitely a lot of frozen granular on top of a hard base but K’s mountain ops team does a great job and I had no complaints. By 1 PM you could definitely find the boilerplate showing in places with the granular being pushed out to the edges. They had guns running on high traffic areas around the mountain. I didn’t do much on Snowdon and I skipped Ramshead and Snowshed all together. But I sampled a lot of everything else that was open. Good day overall and worth the trip. Busy but not crowded. Gray day so not a photo day for me.
