Killington 2/11

Day after a 22 inch snow dump. Very windy. Average weekday crowd. All but a few lifts open most of the day. Gondola opened up for last few hours only. Made getting around difficult. Snow Report said 19 lifts. Maybe they meant lift chairs.

There was some powder, but there was no two feet on most trails. It was hard as rock and full of death cookies. The tree skiing was incredible since the wind blew most of the powder into the woods. On the trails, you'd never know there was a blizzard. Real hard snow.

After seeing so much grass and rocks sticking up last week after the 50 degree this could have been the storm that saved the season for Killingon.
