Resort or Ski Area: Killington

Conditions: Spring conditions

Trip Report:
A repeat of yesterday. I showed up a little later and my first few runs were a struggle. I'm cooked after all the back-to-back-to back glorious spring skiing days. I started on Breakaway. A couple of Outer Limits. A Wildfire. A Skyeburst. A Dream Maker. Bittersweet back to the parking lot for a BBQ. After lunch, I never left the Snowdon quad. Many Northstars. Many Great Bears. A Vagabond. I skied until last chair and hung out partying in the parking lot until 5:30.

Killington has lost a lot of snow. Things like Royal Flush are cooked. Jug/Jug Handle is just about done at the trail intersection. Breakaway is starting to get thin on skier's left and a couple of water bars are getting exposed. Skier's right on OL is showing more rocks. If it doesn't revert to winter, the mountain is going to shrink considerably pretty soon.
