Daily Ski Conditions for Killington Resort, Vermont

Get ready to hit the slopes at Killington Resort in Vermont As of the latest update, the base depth is 15 inches, with a season total of 69 inches. Over the past 24 hours, 1 inch of new snow has fallen, adding to the 19 inches that came down over the last 7 days[2][5].

Currently, the weather is cloudy with temperatures ranging from 59°F at the base to 64°F at the summit. However, a significant drop in temperature is expected, with forecasts predicting lows in the single digits by Thursday[2][4].

Looking ahead, the next 5 days promise a mix of cold temperatures and potential snowfall. Thursday is expected to be particularly chilly, with highs of 17°F and lows of 9°F. Friday and Saturday will see temperatures ranging from 13°F to 27°F, with wind speeds decreasing over the weekend[2][4].

As for the ski conditions, the resort has 6.69% of its trails groomed, with a total of 15 inches of base depth. The summit elevation is 4,241 feet, offering a vertical drop of 3,050 feet and 1,526 acres of skiable terrain[2][3].

Visitors should note that the resort is working hard to prepare for the upcoming World Cup, which might limit terrain expansion and resurfacing efforts for public skiing. Currently, only a couple of trails are open on the upper mountain, requiring walking for those with passes or day tickets[5].

In terms of piste and off-piste conditions, the recent rain followed by a drop in temperature means that the snow might be a bit icy, but the forecasted snowfall should help improve conditions. The top snow depth is 38 cm, with the last snowfall occurring on December 11, 2024[5].
