# Killington Snow Report: January 31, 2026
Killington is delivering solid winter conditions right now, with 76 centimeters of snow at the summit and 50 centimeters at the base, making for some excellent skiing opportunities this weekend.1 The snow quality is currently gripping, and the resort fired up 17 of its 22 lifts this morning, with 109 of 118.4 kilometers of slopes available—that's 92 percent of the terrain open.1 The valley run is also accessible, so you've got plenty of options no matter your skill level.
The last meaningful snow fell on January 27th, so conditions have had a few days to settle in and get tracked out by eager skiers, but shaded areas and the higher elevations are still holding some decent powder stashes.2 Looking at the broader picture, Killington has been getting solid snow this season—the resort typically sees around 172 inches of annual snowfall with an average of 53 snow days, so you're skiing at a mountain that knows how to deliver the goods.3
Weather-wise, today and tomorrow are looking pretty dry with temperatures hovering around minus 28 degrees Celsius at the summit and minus 24 at the base.1 You'll want to bundle up, but the clear skies mean excellent visibility for carving runs and soaking in those mountain views. As we head into the first week of February, temperatures will gradually moderate slightly, but expect to stay well below freezing through the week, with highs reaching only around minus 7 degrees Celsius at the summit by Monday.2 There's minimal new snow in the immediate forecast—less than a centimeter expected over the coming days—so fresh powder isn't on the menu, but the stable cold weather should preserve existing conditions nicely.2
One heads up: piste conditions can vary from firm to occasionally icy, especially on heavily skied terrain or after warmer spells.2 If you're thinking about venturing off-piste, remember that backcountry skiing here isn't always avalanche-controlled or patrolled, so always check local advice and never ski alone.2 For those sticking to groomed runs, you should have a reliable, consistent experience, particularly on the well-maintained pistes throughout the resort.
The season runs through June 7th, so you've got months ahead to chase better snow, but right now Killington is definitely open for business and delivering respectable conditions for winter sports enthusiasts.1
