Winter is Here … Early

It looks like winter has arrived in the Okemo Valley — early, as usual!

It’s only the second day of November, and we have four inches of snow and temperatures in the high 20s.

We tried to go kayaking and the wind and snow beat us back, though we did see a couple of our duck friends swimming in the cove.

We retreated to the fireplace inside Lake Rescue Chalet to watch the flakes fall in cozy comfort. It sure is lovely, though!

I’m sure Okemo and Killington are both thrilled to be bathed in the white stuff, with cold enough temps to turn on the snowmaking machines on the mountains. I don’t think I will brave skiing during the pandemic, unless it’s cross country, alone. Both mountains have restrictions and procedures in place to keep skiers and snowboarders safe. You can read all about it on our COVID-19 skiing page.
