Skiing In New England In May?
Yes, it has been a curious winter and curiouser spring. We had a snow drought in the West, a middling winter in the Rockies, and bitter cold in the East. Now, it’s mid-spring, and we’ve heard of quite unexpected, new powder skiing in the Rockies and the Dakotas. Did people actually go skiing out there after the lifts closed down? Someone please tell us; we thought most areas in the region closed early to less-than-ideal snow conditions this spring.

Now we hear from SeniorsSkiing.com Subscriber Paul Remillard who reports he and his pal Joe spent May 22 at Killington, VT., on the bumps and has pictures to prove it. He reports conditions were still top to bottom on Superstar with corn snow and a hard base between moguls. “Sweet,” says Paul.
This unusual ski season refuses to end.
