Wednesday I believe.

And it does not need to be a finished race ready product that day. They and FIS have to agree by then it will most likely be ready in time for training days and the actual race days.

Even then there are many instances where race courses are on the bubble and FIS postpones snow control.

It will be interesting to see what they can do between this evening and Wednesday noon. Little snow Wednesday might have guns off but cold comes back in. They will have the minimum requirement by the weekend with plenty of cold to follow to make it perfect. From a weather forecast perspective the focus now is on the sensible weather on the 2 race days.

One also has to remember that last year, the day that the FIS officials were there to do the snow control check, they didn't have enough snow down that day, but had a favorable weather window the following few days to finish producing enough snow, get it pushed out and then injected in time for the race.

Looking at the forecast, this might very well be what happens again this year. Guess we'll find out in a few days.

Pretty sure all of the water pumps and air compressors at K (and a bunch of other resorts in the East) are about to get a big workout in! May there not be any mechanical issues and the mtn ops crews stay safe!

Here is the Killington weather window. I would say it is more then likely now they will have the World cup race course ready in time : )

It is absolutely trending the right way with a few nights in the teens instead of low 20s like they were calling for a few days ago

Thanks adds a smile : ) Good thing Killington has favorable weather windows since they are starting at zero snow just about on the SUPERSTAR race trail

Maybe at the top of SS but not at the bottom. Not snowing that hard if at all right now.

Well when it’s $75 to ski one trail that you have to hike to and from yes there is gold for someone.

If there is a rainbow it’s not snow falling….or not good snow if it is

Regarding the Stairway at Killington:
If you ever saw the crowd there in the early season, you'd be grateful for the stairway. It keeps the riff-raff away and makes the 3-open runs (really 1½) almost manageable.
