Date(s) Skied: April 5th 2008 11:00-4:00

Resort or Ski Area: Killington

Conditions: Corn...Lots of fog early then Sun

Trip Report: WOW...What a day. Love the corn... Hit OL,Devils fiddle and left with a huge core shot but lots of run with huge rocks to hit off of. OL had a seeded course and huge hero bumps on skiers left. Big dipper was real sweet with great hero bumps. Snowdon was real nice as well. All the natural trails are skiing real well. I will let the pics say the rest.

OL seeded run

Devils Fiddle

OL Bumps

There is nothing better than Devils Fiddle in the spring-time. Nothing.

Thanks for the pictures and bringing back childhood memories of the Fiddle in April!

It was awesome - great pic's dude! It started out wicked cloudy but the sun broke and we had terrific spring conditions. Temp was about mid-40's and perfect - not too hot and not icy at all. Oh, and it was completely empty too with hardly anyone at the resort.

Best mogul trails were:
- Outer Limits
- Lower Fiddle
- Needle's Eye
- Liftline
- Escapade
- Upper Royal Flush

Here's Kev on Needle's and me on Liftline:
