Killington
Nine inches of new snow in the past 24 hours at Killington Peak and seven at the base. Jim Roemer "Dr. Weather" is predicting another storm for Wednesday night and Thursday with the potential of an additional 10-15 inches. That's 1-2 feet of new snow this week if predictions hold true.
We expanded to 20 trails and four lifts for Wednesday with the addition of Snowshed and another 10+ trails and nine lifts will be open this weekend. The world's largest snowmaking system is also running full-throttle to complement Mother Natures natural offering

Red Lodge
Well, here we are, only two days until we open. This is the scoop: Miami Beach Chair and those associated runs will be open. The snowmakers are hoping for cold temps in the next two nights and working with the groomers who are moving snow, they will have Turnpike and Bobcat open as well. We will know for sure on Friday. Sorry, I cannot be more exact, but this recent stretch of warm temperatures has really taken its toll on the snow and snowmaking operations. I hope you can make it up this weekend, even with the limited terrain. Red Lodge Mountain

Habuka47
Hakuba 47 Winter Sports Park is located in Hakuba Valley cascading down the apron of the Northern Japan Alps, the hottest skiing mecca of Japan which has more than 10 ski resorts nearby and over 200 runs. So that the alpine scenery from our resort and Hakuba Village is truly spectacular with huge rugged peaks towering to the sky, especially, Goryu Mountain and the Big three Hakuba Mountains, Hakuba Yarigatake, Hakuba Syakushidake, Shiroumadake. Shiroumadake, which means white horse, is the resort's signature peak rising to a lofty 2,932m (9,770 feet).
Hakuba 47 is interlinked with two other mountains, Hakuba Goryu and Iimori, and offer the ski able area of XXX hectars with 23 named runs together to delight skiers and snowboarders. It has one of the resorts' most notable intermediate cruising run, the longest season in Hakuba Village, some comfortable north-facing beginner slopes from which the wide-open landscape and other ski resorts in Hakuba Village can be seen, a huge moguls course, and a well-maintained half-pipe and snow park which has a variety of rails, jumps and waves. Hakuba Goryu and Iimori on the South side of the mountain can also be reached from Hakuba47, offering beginners, intermediates and experts an even wider selection of runs to choose from.
In 1998 the Winter Olympic Games returned to Japan after 26 years. Snowboarding and curling debuted as official disciplines and women’s ice hockey was introduced to the Olympic programme. For the first time, the men's ice hockey tournament was opened to all professionals. The inspired team from the Czech Republic scored a surprise victory. Björn Dählie won three gold medals in Nordic skiing to become the first winter athlete to earn eight career olympic gold medals and twelve total medals. Tara Lipinski won the women’s figure skating title to become, at 15, the youngest champion in an individual event in the history of the Winter Olympics. The spirit of the Games was exemplified by Alpine skier Hermann Maier. Maier survived a spectacular fall in the downhill, recovered and earned gold medals in both the super-G and the giant slalom. http://www.olympic.org
