k was surprisingly good today - after first impression suggested icy hardpack dominsated day
in spite of very firm base, plenty of soft bumps and trail edges to make for a fine, fine time.
sun finally came out in time for the walk back up to top of gondi.Last edited by buckethead; 11-12-2023 at 11:39 PM.

Their weather report said temperatures were rising and they'd only make snow up top in less words which doesn't make much sense.

That was my assumption all along saw Cannon bumped theirs to Dec 2. Originally Posted by buckethead

No reason to get mad at Killington bc at least they are trying.
I think early season is the new late season for corporate bean counters in New England its only going to be customers who have already bought season passes so best to just not open. At least at Killington its their 'thing' to open early.

It was cool to see a bit of snow on top of the pond ice. Mounted up a pair of skis for me and the dil over the weekend. Unless the pattern changes significantly looks like December will be the start for me Originally Posted by Vt-Freeheel

Solid 1 1/4 on top of 2 from the old LT parking to the top of the Notch. I went up to look at the ice, should have brought the skis instead. Originally Posted by Vt-Freeheel

Skiing? I guess it’s time to start to think about skiing now that I hauled my boat yesterday.
Good luck on the WROD, sharpen you edges, and keep your stick on the ice. Ski safe all!Last edited by singlecross; 11-15-2023 at 05:41 PM.

I forgot how long the walk of shame back to the Gondola was at Killington. Great to be out but northridge gets old quick. There used to be better early season mountains but they've lost interest in opening ASAP under vail ownership. I guess with Superstar and FIS being #1 priority over customers it will take a serious early coldsnap for Killington to not suck pre Thanksgiving these days. There were some good Novembers in the past though.
Wildcat was so perfect right before those cnuts bought it for early season WROD turns.
