Of course not, however the same trail roll out every season does get a little old. Maximizing efficiency shouldn't be the only objective. Skier experience should matter too.
Killington does a great job given what they've got, but they need to start thinking a bit outside the existing box; other areas are catching up.

Goes to show, you don't never know
Watch each card you play, and play it slow
Don't you let that deal go down
Don't you let that deal go down
Looks like its going down no matter what I do !!!

Lower East Fall icy? What's next? Water's wet? Is nothing sacred?
