Re: Friday, Feb 16 - Killington report …
Jeeze. Was thinking if going to K as I know SRT and CQ4 run fridays. Glad I went to Pico. Summit chair ran smooth. There were some really good turns and some really bad turns. Stay out of the shallow and don't bottom out on the coral reef and the turns were silky. Upper and middle pike are snowguns ...

Re: Ski width and late-in-day killington “sand piles”
I agree. I've had between 97 and 100mm waisted skis as daily drivers since the 2014-2015 seasonnewpylong1 wrote: ↑Feb 16th, '24, 07:28 98 underfoot for a one ski quiver. iMHO 104 is a little wide for the conditions we typically see other than the edge case that you describe perhaps.

Re: Expansion
The snowmaking capital certainly isn't Pico even with double the pumping capacity for this year... I was there this past weekend and the only summit trail they hit was 49er. Can't remember the last time Upper KA, S71 and Pike weren't covered. I don't get it... They made snow on upper KA this season...

The problem then sometimes lies when you give the FU price and you get the jobeasyrider16 wrote: ↑Feb 14th, '24, 12:45 IDK, sometimes people go for the FU price and it works out to be worth his while

Re: Is Killington for sale?
killington's one of powdr's cash cows. would doubt they'd sell it especially w the long awaited village apparently becoming a reality unless they have some debt payments due and desperately need the money. Been saying this for a long time. I know it's a capital-intensive business, but with the traf...

Re: Closing Skyship
Imo, the condition of the Northbrook storage building should be addressed. That thing looks terrible coming up stage 1. Huge pieces of siding mising as well as soffits and fascias. I'm not expecting it to look perfect or even far from, but it shouldn't look like it's one moderate gust away from coll...

Re: Hannah Soar - Hometown Hero
I didn't know Olivia was KMS. Does she ever ski SS spring bumps? I've never seen her at K.

Re: Do you trust the Skyeship?
The only lifts that are trustworthy are the Northbrook quad, bear chair and snowdon triple. The rest have some sort of issue or another it seems.
Maybe CQ4 as it had quite a lot done to it this offseason
