Dry bay one start at the bell. K1 with GIS and Crew. Rare appearance by Finn!

Groomed cascade looked good,but was like early yesterday morning. Frozen cord.

Up again and headed to lower elevation on the bubble. Mouse the rotd on wet sugar.

Couple more and GIS called it. I did a couple more box runs, but the precip became heavy.

Almost made it to 11. Top really never got soft.

Gnar report - 9:30-3:30 shift (with a bunch of breaks in the car warming up and changing clothes).

I arrived at the mostly empty Bay 1 at 9:30 (late for me). By the time I was on snow, the NCP had begun.

Mouse Trap was not only ROTD, it was in some ways the only run worth skiing all day. It was one of the only groomed trails, and most everything ungroomed remained concrete all day.

I did check out Rams, figuring it might be a little softer. It was, but not worth lapping the chair.

It was one of those days the bubble was made for. I would not have lasted all day without it. The Gondi stopped spinning at about 1 PM, but the bubble remained empty.

At 3 PM it briefly snowed. So there was that.
2014 - "A South Ridge trail is Pipe Dream. A South Ridge lift shouldn't be."
2019 - "A South Ridge trail is Pipe Dream. A South Ridge lift (operating midweek) shouldn't be."
2023 - Killington announces that the South Ridge lift will run five days a week.
2024 - Killington lied.
