Just got the official word from Mtn Opps.....snowline starts just below the Bravo terminus, about 1/2 " there. More on the upper mountain. Unfortunately, the entire mountain is socked in but as soon as we can we will get some pics posted.

I assume Killington has some snow which I assume you can see from or near your office....how about some pics of that! :P

The mountain just appeared and I got some pics but won't be able to post them until after work. Hopefully, Losty can post some pics today.

So I get up, check for snow... top all fogged in.

Waste a little time, was writing an email to a friend. (Yes... I do have friends!) was saying I want to go up andsee if it is good from the top. Look over the rail... SNOW!!!!

Great, Greg! I had just thought of that and checked here, first.

Planning on putting up cleaned up versions of them, later, with the lighting adjusted to what I actually saw. I'll try to preserve the links, but if not, I'll let you know, so you can repair them. :wink:

Scrambling to get up on the lift to try to get some shots from above most of the foliage. :)

Win stopped in and advised that Channel 5 is headed over for some first snow buzz. Assume it will be on the news tonight.

Johnny come lately? You can't post too late too early too often or too many photos especially of autumn snow. We're coming up next weekend, and I can't wait.

Thanks for the eye candy photogs one and all.

My pix will wait a little longer. :(

Another slot opened at the station, and I'm going to sit in on part of the 9-11AM show. That means I have to assemble said show. :wink:
