How about you use some intelligence? Im sure killington is sick on a powder day if it is already sick as you have said on a normal day.

Average annual snowfall is 250". This is more than Southern VT area like Snow, and Stratton. It's less than Northern resorts like Jay, or Stowe, who average around 300".

What exactly were you looking to find out?

Oh, and to describe how the place is on a Pow-day...

Mid-week pow-days are pretty much a 9am lineup of locals meeting up at the lifts at 8:30. open runs get nuked out and then everyone moves into the trees. If you know where to look, on a mid-week powder day you can be slashing stashes until 4pm, no problem.

My only gripe is the lack of high visibility gnar that places like Magic, or Jay have. There isn't a lift running up over a drop line or anything where people are consistently getting rad.

Lots of great rippers around though.
