Not Very Beastly - Light up Ovation!!!

Bunny Buster? Great Northern? Lame! The Beast claims they go bigger so why do they cater to beginners? That's some weak sauce. Next weekend they will be on the world stage. With all the firepower currently on Supe and Skyelark, they should crush it by adding Bittersweet and Ovation. Killington's mos...

I’d be fine with that. Though POWDR could always include all of their resorts on one pass. I wouldn’t be upset with access to Killington / Pico, Copper, Bachelor, and Snowbird.

Re: expansion

The lack of expansion is clearly intentional to drive Fast Track sales. The more crowds, the more unpleasant the experience, the higher the demand for a "Premium Experience".

No Ikon. Know Peace.

Let the other mountains have the Ikon / Epic sh!t show. K can Differentiate by not being a part of it.

These signs are a problem. Yes, they're funny but the message is lost on the target audience rendering them useless.

Re: It’s Dangerous Out There

They make it very clear on the website, snow report, and posted signage on the mountain that the terrain is not appropriate for beginners, so there's nothing more that can be done on that front. I disagree. No one. NO ONE reads , comprehends, and acts on the posted info on the website, snow report,...

It’s Dangerous Out There

Too many straight liners. Too many beginners. Too many people who don’t belong. If there were to be a fatal accident, I think Killington could be found negligent. There is ZERO visible Ski Patrol presence on the hill. Clearly reckless behavior is tolerated, if not encouraged. Beginners and people wh...

Re: expansion

Does anywhere else in the east have a trail / spectator area where this could even be done? The following all have SL & GS FIS Homologated Courses: VT - Burke, Jay, Killington, Middlebury, Okemo, Stowe, Stratton, Sugarbush NH - Attitash, Crotched, Dartmouth, Loon, Cannon, Sunapee, Waterville Va...

Re: Snowmaking Science & Strategy

to those who think they've been less aggressive To be clear, I wasn't saying definitively that they've been less aggressive, I really was asking the question. They've clearly been making snow in marginal conditions, there were just a few windows where, in the past, it felt like they would have gone...
