Spring skiing in Vermont at Jay Peak

Updated afternoon of 4/26/10

Well it's clear that Killington has stopped running its lifts: they switched over to their summer homepage today. Yesterday was the last day for spring skiing at the ski resort. <link http: twitpic.com external-link-new-window>Spring skiing at Jay Peak in Vermont

So who is left?

Jay Peak is the only Vermont ski area saying they will be open again this season. They plan to reopen from Thursday, April 29, to Sunday, May 2.

Here's a photo from the resort taken on Saturday during what was a gorgeous weekend here in northern Vermont. Many residents were mowing their lawns and cleaning their gardens in preparation for the growing season. Yet, we may still see snow flurries this week — and potential accumulation at higher elevations!

It's sad to let a ski season go — especially when you keep hearing that it's been dumping snow out west! Sigh.
