Killington Spring Shred: Fresh Snow, Closed Terrain, and Epic Midweek Conditions Ahead
Published 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Description
Ski Report for Killington Resort, Vermont
Daily Ski Conditions for Killington Resort, Vermont
Hey skier, Killington's still dishing out that epic spring shred session despite the thaw—think machine-groomed fun with a side of caution as we hit early April vibes. Base depth's holding at 12-14 inches, ramping to 18-24 inches mid-mountain and summit, with wet snow dominating up high for those carvy turns. No massive dumps in the last 24-48 hours (zeros reported recently), but 8 inches fell over the past 72, and season total's crushing it at 187 inches—way above the 175-inch average.
Right now, 12-13 of 20-22 lifts are spinning, unlocking 85-94 of 155 trails (72% open), including valley runs for easy laps. Pistes are mostly machine-groomed and gripping, but off-piste is variable with thinning spots—Ski Patrol's marking hazards amid spring melt. Weather's mild today around 40-50°F base (cooler summit), west winds at 9mph, and a wintry mix possible soon.
Look ahead: Expect 2-5 inches snow tonight into tomorrow with highs near 17°F dropping to 4°F, then light snow (1-2 inches) Monday (28-32°F), trace Tuesday, and heavier 4-7 inches by midweek as temps plunge to -12°F—prime for fresh lines! But watch for instability: Superstar Trail and lift are closed due to a growing crevasse from rain and 30-foot snowpack depths, plus ungroomed runs like Double Dipper. Thinning coverage means possible walk-outs, so stick to open stuff for that "spring-tastic" vibe. Resort's open through June 7, snowmaking pros keeping it prime—grab your board and charge!
