Except for the higher sun, longer days and great deals there are few signs of spring at Killington in Central Vermont.
There was a two foot dump two weeks ago and with the cold temperatures there has been little melting going on.
“It’s essentially still mid-winter conditions” said David Sartwell from Bradenton Florida. The snow is all powder and the trails are still well covered. The nightly grooming activities with over seventy trails being groomed midweek according to Michael Joseph, Killington’s Communications/PR Manager.
There are plenty of bumps for those looking for a challenge while the steeps like Cascade and Ovation have plenty of snow to carve on.
