June 1 Final Day
FREE skiing has brought out the masses almost an hour before lift opening.

Nice touch having the ropes to help you down the "headwall".Stache wrote:

ropes were really helpful.
SS really held up well.

Re: June 1 Final Day

Re: June 1 Final Day
Killington did a great job . . . thanks to the whole crew . . . for a free day for non pass holders, K still showed class to everyone . . . it was amazing to show up to the mountain and see that line before opening bell!!! My first selfish thought was, "oh, I'm not going to get a shirt!" . . . then my heart took over, and I was overwhelmed at what Killington was able to accomplish by opening for June 1st - what a day and a great memory for me . . . Killington is a great home mountain for us

Re: June 1 Final Day
Bummer, sitting here sipping one of Buckethead's beers that ended up in our cooler and realizing how many folks I never got to say a proper farewell to . . . but, in reality, I hate 'goodbyes' . . . so to those I did not get to give the "farewell hug" to, I will truly miss you until next season . . . and, you're all welcome to come visit the farm and stay if need be
Re: June 1 Final Day
Most memorable day of the season. K pulled it off with snow to spare until the very end. Great skiing with everyone.

Re: June 1 Final Day
about as perfect a closing day as one could hope for!
Props to K for making it happen.
And great to spend one more beautiful day on the access road sharing food and beverages with the great bunch of folks that makes the last 2 months of the season the very best! Those who couldn't be there - you know who you are and we wished you were there.
Will put some photos up later but for now wishing everyone a great summer!
ps: glad one of my beers ended up in your cooler Mrs G!
Cheers!
