Killington's Spring Finale: Last Pow Runs Before the Melt Takes Over
Published 9 hours ago
Description
Killington Resort, the beast of the East, is winding down its epic season as spring vibes take over Vermont's Green Mountains. Right now, the base sits at a slim **6 inches** of snow depth, while the summit clings to **18 inches**—enough for die-hards to carve some lines before the melt[1][2]. No fresh powder in the last 24 or 48 hours, but the season total clocks in at a respectable **210 inches**, keeping those memories fresh[3].
Just **4 lifts** are spinning, serving up **12 trails** for your shred session—think Bear Mountain and some summit stashes holding groomed goodness[4]. Piste conditions are spring slushy with firm patches in the AM turning softer by afternoon; off-piste is mostly closed due to thin cover and rocks peeking through, so stick to the marked runs to avoid a yard sale[5][6].
Weather's playing nice today with partly cloudy skies, temps hovering around **45°F at base** (32°F summit) and light winds—perfect for a mellow cruise[7]. Looking ahead, expect a warm-up: highs in the **50s tomorrow** with possible showers, climbing to **60s** by mid-week under mixed sun and clouds, and a slim chance of flurries late next week as cooler air dips in[8][9]. Pack your shades and base layers.
Pro tip: Lifts run till 4 PM, but check the daily ops report for any tweaks—crowds are thinning, parking's easy, and après at the Wobbly Barn is calling. Special notice: Full summer ops kick off soon with biking and hiking; spring passholders get perks. Hit the hill early, session those last turns, and think like a local—huck your turns with a grin before it's lift-accessed MTB season!
