PowderBeard Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Seriously - last November was nuts if you were up for earning turns. Magic was incredible prior to Thanksgiving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Today cannot be good for early season snow making. Anything made already is getting rocked. About as good of a melt scenario as you can get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be blowing a ton of snow in the next two weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkO Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Yeah, Killington pounded all night. Still going strong. Noticed a bit of an inversion at MWN, but probably not enough to curtail operations. With the low dew's I wouldn't be surprised if Killington (and Sunday River too) blow snow all day/night. Good snowmaking weather continues into next week. Expect some resorts to open. I think Killington maybe as early as tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be some really cold nights where they can become very efficient versus the more marginal nights. Good news for the World Cup there. Hopefully no 12-18 hour tropical cutters 2nd half of month. That's really the only thing that can ruin it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I'm digitizing my old photos. If you guys want a laugh, this is Kitzbuhel Austria in April of 1987. It's me, my uncle and my brother. My how fashion and skis have changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwt3650 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Anyone know where Killington usually goes after Rime and Reason? Thinking of heading out next week and it looks like they will be blowing 24/7 with the upcoming temps. Just want to see if I'm looking at only those two or they have moved quickly to get terrain open in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the cold weather later this week, they will try to open Great Northern, Middle Chute and Lower Mouse Run. Probably also Upper Downdraft and Ridge Run. Maybe Upper Bunny Buster , Upper Mouse Run and Chute TTB. With the World Cup and Snowmaking demand for Superstar, they might not expand in this fashion this week. Last year Mount Snow was TTB way before Killington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anecdotal but quite a bit of white visible on Killington this afternoon as we drove south on 89. Looks like they've been blowing full force.

It wouldn't surprise me if Killington only goes after Superstar this week. They'll get fined if snow depths aren't sufficient for the event.
