Y'all need to let Mike know your disappointments. He told me nobody ever complains. Saying it here doesn't appear to reach him. Shout it out.

Re: Spring Shrinkage Schedule ?
It's not at all uncommon to have K1 and either Canyon or North Ridge open the last weekend of April. It wasn't uncommon for a long time. That seems to be changing. Last year they went to Supe only on Monday 4/24. I have doubts that they will change their plans this year, of all years. The place is ...

Re: Mountain Green Sales?
I would disagree. The taxes matter even if you are a 2nd or 3rd homeowner. It may not matter for those well inside the top 1%, but it matters to the top 2% to 10% (of the 1 to 2% of ski families that would buy ski real estate in New England) that need to be killingtons market for that village, whet...

Re: 105" in the last 26 days
f*** it, I'm hiding out in the woods, lighting up and putting on dark side of the moon and skiing down in the dark in a full eclipse. That's the plan and I'm sticking with it! Why is K closing early for the eclipse? Because it's supposed to start to getting dark around 2:15. Makes sense. Thanks.

None afaik (and per land record info on Ktown website), they are a rental management company for individual owners.

Re: Mountain Green Sales?
I'll add that the association has manipulated the ownership voting system in favor of securing approval for all voting matters. As is currently written, over 50% of the ownership must vote NO in order to decline a voting matter. They've removed 14% off the top for common areas (as if each owner doe...

Re: SkyeShip Gondala > Number of busted chairs..
Get rid of all that crap below bear. No more skyship. No more trails. Focus on the stuff where people go. Like mentioned above, who is going to invest $15m on new stuff that low in elevation that gets minimal use. Scale back! Plenty of resorts have access gondolas/lifts that only serve to get you t...

Re: Mountain Green Sales?
One of the first rules in purchasing vacation property is not to buy it as an investment. You buy it because you want to enjoy it, and any subsequent appreciation in value comes as a bonus. That is exactly right and is exactly what we did, we were not thinking investment at all...but knowing what I...

Re: SkyeShip Gondala > Number of busted chairs..
I don't ski Killington enough anymore to experience what you have but given how much you do ski it, and how long you have been doing it, I trust your opinions fully. That being said, I think Mike has generally been good for Killington (hear me out) especially when compared to his predecessors Less ...

Re: SkyeShip Gondala > Number of busted chairs..
I am surprised he responded the second time. You can't really expect him to get into a back and forth with you. It's not that your original complaints were wrong, but they were kind of very generalized. For instance, you didn't actually specifically mention the Skyeship or ask what their plans were...

Re: SkyeShip Gondala > Number of busted chairs..
To his credit, he did take the suggestion of bringing in mountain ops early for the last storm. Too little, too late for me.
