Re: Access to PUBLIC LAND is now a violation?!
I believe Killington misstated some facts about how well the boundary is marked. They have certainly improved the signage and ropes since the incident.

Re: Access to PUBLIC LAND is now a violation?!
You can certainly tell who in this thread has no idea what it’s like dealing with pre-schoolers. “You just tell them what to do and they do it”. Hah!

Your theory is NOT what happened here . . All were "resort" skiers (and a Killington instructor). None had any "backcountry gear" with them. 5 different groups, each with slightly different intentions. I think you may be misreading that post. I see it as they said some backcount...

Re: Access to PUBLIC LAND is now a violation?!
Not to revive this dead horse, but I have a theory about what happened here, and why anyone would be skiing off Snowdon toward the backside vs the usual (and well signed) access points like Cooper Lodge. I haven't been to the top of Snowdon since earlier this season, so I don't know the current stat...
