....we (and Sabconsulting in the RV following us) drove by the Killington Skyeship base lodge last September. Pretty impressive facility. I've never skied Killington (too far from home-base), but would have liked to. I skied primarily Jay Peak, and the most distant was Smuggler's Notch.
I was looking at the stats for Killington season opening (historically mid to early October). And their season has been shortening since about 2007 (November), with a few earlier (normal) years...
Jay Peak is open now, with 49 trails and 9 lifts open (roughly a 30 inch base)....this mountain is kind of in a snow/cold pocket in the Vermont mountains.

Great that you are out with your kids sliding on that white stuff even if this years winter is a bit of a no show. Do you plug into shore power , use a genny or are set up for dry camping?
I guess I shouldn't rub it in that our little hill (6200')is still building it's base.(235 cm). Started late Oct cross country skiing and both areas, Sovereign Lake Nordic and Silver Star Resort are closing April 3rd even though there is still good powder snow.
Last year, most of the east had winter and the west was a little shy of snow.

Wow! You actually have snow. Nice report.
We're somewhat north of you, and have zero snow outside our home (on top of a mountain in the Townships of Quebec).
Never seen anything like it. It was 57F here yesterday, and 51F out the door right now.
