This is only partially correct. Duane Hall, who previously was responsible for housekeeping and the front desk at the Grand, has been promoted to the GM position and now also will oversee the spa and maintenance at the Grand. Jayne has the director of lodging title, Duane will report to her, and she...

They realized there were all those valuable, unused pipes - they are being reused elsewhere. The excess metal from the old lift is being sold for scrap. Every dollar counts...

How about setting the clocks to the correct time - some are an hour off - some are just completely wrong!

Called the K ski phone - and after the taped message the auto-attendant greeting is still using the taglines "Home of endless adventures and the longest ski and snowboard season in Eastern North America". Is that justified by "well in 2002-2003 we had the longest season in North Ameri...

I like the government forecast better at noaa.gov http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Killington&state=VT&site=BTV&textField1=43.67&textField2=-72.77&e=1 Shows much better chance for some possible snow, perhaps Wednesday night, Thursday, and Saturday... Tonight: Inc...

1. The access road is to be moved toward the slopeside of what is now the Ramshead parking lot. The road will not go under the existing layout. Hmm, it seemed to me that this point was not settled on the plans that I saw at about the same time as you, but that there was a distinct desire to END the...

The weekend of 11/17 is the annual homeowners weekend, when most of the condo associations have their annual meeting, there is a big presentation scheduled for Saturday morning at the Grand, and a big party Saturday night for any homeowners in the Killington rental program. So if they can get it ope...

I think they are keeping that under wraps because they don't want to tip their hand (or hat) to the competition.

To add to the confusion of their pricing - I have learned that 6% tax gets added to the price of the Countdown cards, and to the $24 cost of the Express card - all the other prices in my original post apparently include sales tax. This means the countdown card is really not worth it unless you are o...

Dave, cmfrvt, mentioned the changes in the discount cards last night. Mentioned it here? I guess I didn't see it! I don't understand why they don't take the opportunity to post these things (and put that positive spin on the news that they are so good at) instead of waiting for someone to discover ...

It looks like K is continuing to tweak their pricing (there have been a lot of changes since they first posted things if you have followed the website). First, now there is new higher price for Saturday/Holiday 1 day lift tickets (now $79, up from $76). On a positive note, the Express Card - which i...

This is from the horse's mouth: Upper Skyeship lift starts December 21st. 7 days a week until March 30th. Lower Skyeship Lift and Lodge will open on December 27th through January 6th, every day. Thereafter, Lower Skyeship Lift and Lodge will be open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays only until March...

and having just done an analysis of all these products, I find that if I plan to ski multiple days at a time, the e-Ticket is really the best deal - for example if K is where I end up for Christmas week, 7 day passes average down to $53/day adult, $42/day young adult and $36/day junior. On the Count...

It's interesting to hear your perspective. So - priced to high? Not enough of a deal over multi-days to make you want to stay long? Last year we had bronze All For One Passes - so we paid about $400, and ended up skiing 10 days. I liked the fact that we could go up and stay for 3 or 4 days, and did...

I just don't get it! Even if one accepts their stated business model of increasing revenue, encouraging overnight guests and longer stays, etc., how do any of these "offers" further such a goal? As someone who will ski somewhere around 10-15 days this year (none day trips - all multi-night...
