Day 42 - Killington

Tons more snow yesterday and overnight - 18" in total; On the hill right at 8:00 for another Powder Day; Skied the Volkl Katana's; Parked at Snowdon; After trudging up to the K-1 through Bay 1, I bailed the liftline at 7:55 when it was apparent they weren't loading anytime soon - got to the Snowdon Quad with 7 or 8 folks in front of me and was rewarded when they opened at 8:05; Great Bear/Caper Woods - Great Bear/Caper Woods - Upper Double Dipper/Upper East Fall - Escapade/Flume - Ovation/Superstar - Downdraft Headwall/Double Dipper Glade - KBL coffee - HUGH lines when I came back out, so I got on the Snowdon Triple and finished with a great poach of the snow between the actual Snowdon Poma track and the rope - best snow of the past two days - deep and untracked; I took my first fall of the season today on Upper Double Dipper - I hit a half submerged bump and went over the handlebars; The mountain has to making some serious cash - when I left at 10:45 today, all the parking lots in the Basin area were full and they had people parked on the Access Road all the way down to the Santa Fe.
