Ski Report for Killington Resort, Vermont
Daily Ski Conditions for Killington Resort, Vermont
Hey skier, Killington is firing on all cylinders right now, delivering some of the best conditions of the season after a monster storm dumped 14-17 inches of fresh powder over the weekend and Monday—perfect for carving groomers or ducking into the trees with those joyous hoots echoing across the slopes. Base snow depth sits at a solid 40 cm (about 16 inches), climbing to 56 cm (22 inches) up top at 1293m, mostly artificial but boosted by that recent natural dump, with the last snowfall hitting January 22. In the last 24-48 hours, expect another 1-2 inches from ongoing showers, keeping things soft and playful.
You're looking at 109 of 118 km of trails open (92% coverage) and 17 of 22 lifts spinning (77%), including valley runs for that sweet lap after lap action—plenty to explore across the six peaks. Pistes are groomed fantastic, blending fresh powder stashes with machine-laid corduroy, while off-piste varies from creamy wind buff to potential crust if winds pick up, so scout smart in the glades. Season total? Killington's chasing its reliable 250-inch average, and this storm's a huge step up.
Weather's staying wintry gold: today maxes around 19°F at base (6°F low), feeling crisp with SE winds F4 up high where it's dipping to 8°F and another 1-2 inches possible. North winds 10-20 mph early will bite, but lifts kick off at 8 AM for first tracks. Forecast keeps the snow line at base level through Sunday: Tuesday 13°F/1in base, Wed 15°F clearish, Thu 15°F/1in, Fri 8°F chilly, Sat-Sun 20°F/trace—prime for non-stop shredding with 3 inches total over 7 days.
Pro tip: roads are clearing post-storm, but pack chains and check VTrans for updates—schools closed statewide, so expect crowds of powder hounds like you. Bear Mountain Quad's on regular schedule, fun park's open (halfpipe closed), no night skiing yet. Grab online tickets or passes now; it's jumping like Mary Poppins perfect out there—strap in and send it!
