‘Storm of the year!’


Courtesy Killington Resort

Snowstorms dumped 40 inches on Killington last week, with 24 inches of that falling in a white-out blizzard Saturday, March 23.  The resort was able to reopen 100% of its terrain and thousands flocked to the slopes to enjoy the light fluffy snow as it fell Saturday. Sunday greeted skiers and riders with an abrupt but welcome change: a warm sunny day!

Area resorts rejoiced.

Killington Resort  called it “A week to remember” on multiple social media channels.

Okemo posted, “With 20+ inches of fresh pow on the slopes, we couldn’t be more excited to drop some ropes and watch our stockpile stack up. Cheers to another March miracle!”
