"At least for now" Bonus weekend thread

They are open daily thru May 5th. Check the lift ticket sales portal. Easy hack to figure it out.

This is also pretty much standard practice when the calendar comes around to it. They weren't going to close just for May 2nd, and they never suggested they would. They have been pretty clear about being open daily through May 5th. People were just guessing otherwise.

But I wouldn't use the ticket sales page as the definitive answer on these things either. It was originally incorrect, showing the resort as closed on Fridays in May, while the correct information was on the operational schedule part of the site.

The left hand routinely doesn't know what the right hand is doing at Killington. The website, app, guest services, etc., constantly never seem to have the same information on hand and often contradict each other. Makes getting the right answer challenging...

3 lifts is the most common for the last weekend with more than just Superstar. If you're picking 3 lifts, and one of them has to be Superstar, then K1 and North Ridge are the combination that serves the most terrain. I'm guessing every single trail off North Ridge will be open, even the natural ones. From K1, you can ski the lower Snowdon trails, everything that's still open in The Canyon since the runout is covered, and Launch Pad. If they ran Snowdon instead of North Ridge, but Upper Bunny and Mouse Run would've been the only open trails. Full House and Upper Chute were in bad shape last weekend. If they ran Canyon, then the Canyon trails would've been easier to lap, but the North Ridge trails wouldn't have been open since LEF is toast and it would be a dead end. Should be a good weekend.

I think they are going above and beyond, running the Cooper's lift. Kudos.

Which lifts they have run in the past is meaningless. They could have run just the K1 this weekend, and most of us would have been quite thankful.

It will be awesome. Tonight should go below freezing, but I think it will soften quickly in tomorrow's sun. Sunday should be soft at the bell.

Don't forget the sunscreen.
