Ski Report for Killington Resort, Vermont

Daily Ski Conditions for Killington Resort, Vermont

Kick off your skis — Killington is riding a fresh pulse of snow and groomed corduroy right now, with a reported base around 12 inches and conditions listed as variable to wet granular across the mountain. The resort’s official-style reports show roughly 12" base depth at both summit and base areas in the most recent public updates. New snow totals have been modest but helpful: about 2" reported in the past 24 hours and 2" in the past 48 hours on several snow-report pages. Forecast models and regional services are calling for additional light to moderate snow over the next couple days (another 1–3" possible in the 48-hour window and locally heavier bursts during periodic showers), with heavier snow showers expected in the Tue–Wed window of the short-range forecasts. Killington’s season total in these reports is shown near 64" so far this season, while longer-term averages for the mountain sit higher (historical averages around 167"–250" noted by different sources). Lift and trail access is partial right now — around 11 of 22 lifts and a similar partial share of the 155 trails are open per recent resort-status snapshots. Expect primary surfaces to be machine-groomed where open but with variable patches, and secondary surfaces reporting wet granular snow in exposed or lower-elevation areas. Weather at the resort is cold-ish with daytime highs near freezing to low 30s°F and overnight lows in the teens to low 20s°F on forecast days, with on-mountain temps varying by elevation as forecasts indicate base temps near the low 20s°F and summit colder; winds are variable but can gust from the southwest to northwest in forecast windows. The five-day outlook favors intermittent snow showers early in the period, clearing windows and cold snaps between systems, and additional light accumulations possible later in the week — check live updates because timing and totals shift quickly in the Greens. Piste conditions range from fresh groomed corduroy after the grooming cycle to variable/icy or wind-affected surfaces on hardened or sun-exposed pitches; off-piste terrain is very variable — pockets of tracked powder survive in sheltered trees, but wind crust, refrozen granular layers, or thin coverage are common in exposed and lower-elevation zones. Killington’s expanded snowmaking network helps keep cruisers open and surfaces compacted, but expect thinner coverage and exposed rocks/roots in sidecountry and lower trails where natural snow is limited. Practical tips for visitors: buy lift tickets and rentals online (the resort emphasizes online purchases), sign up for Beast (text) powder alerts and check webcams for live trail/lift status before you drive, and be prepared for mixed conditions — bring layered waterproof gear, slightly stiffer edges for variable ice/granular sections, and a willingness to migrate to higher or shaded terrain when looking for the best snow. Watch for local advisories: regional services have issued winter weather advisories and the mountain may post delayed openings or changed hours when heavier bands arrive, so expect operational updates on lifts/trails throughout the day. If you want live cams, lift counts, or the fastest status feed while packing the car, hit Killington’s conditions page and the resort app for real-time changes and powder alerts.
