Seriously, this time last year, Killington was already open, every other place was blowing snow like no one's business. This year I haven't even heard about opening days yet, and I'm assuming its gonna be at least another month. I really don't care if its just a few rails in someone's yard, I'm trying to fucking ride already.

Based on there lows it should be two weekends out they need a few days of 25 or so to actually produce a productive amount of snow.

It’s been pretty warm, that’s why killington and Sunday river haven’t openned. As soon as it’s cold for a few days/nights killington and probably Sunday river will open. I’m too ready lol.

Killington and Sunday River opened the same day last year and they probably will again this year once it's cold enough.

Might need to do an unexpected and unwarranted trip to Tremblant if they get it open first. Hear that place is like Disneyland.

They will open when it gets cold. If that’s not for 3 weeks then that’s what it is. Nothing you can do about it. Some years you get early cold. Some you don’t. Way it works.
