Proving once again that weather in Killington is anything but consistent, the region was visited last night by a fine dusting of snow. More like a pixie dust raining from the heavens, it was just enough this morning to cover roof tops, coat windshields, and cast a white frosting on the tops of the Green Mountains all around the Killington Region

Now so we don't get ahead of ourselves, we are talking dust... not an epic snow fall. If you already put your skis away for the season... leave them there....think of last nights dusting as Mother Natures way of fertilizing golf courses all around central Vermont. If you have not put your skies away yet, you understand that there is still intermediate and expert skiing to be had at Killington from the Superstar Quad. Not much, mind you... The resort is reporting 4 trails... but enough to allow for an hour or 3 of fun on the snow followed by a celebratory beverage at the Umbrella Bars if that is your shtick.

Around Killington this weekend, Snoop Dog rolls into town with 2 shows at the Pickle Barrel Nightclub. This is Snoop's third year visiting the establishment with his entourage. The first show starts at 4:00 Pm and is 18 and older. The second show is scheduled to go off at 9:00PM and is for people over "21". Tickets to Snoop Dog are available on the Pickle Barrel's website.

For those of you who are just coming up to Killington to enjoy the area, the Killington Art's Guild is holding an exhibition in their gallery on Route 4 upstairs at Base Camp Outfitters and Cabin Fever Gifts. "The Art in Your Life" exhibition will be on display at the Killington Arts Guild through May 20th.

At this inn this weekend, we are serving dinner on both Friday and Saturday night. So as you head to the mountains for some weekend R and R, stop in if the mood fits.

We look forward to seeing you in Killington this weekend. and don't forget your sun screen!
