Re: The official KZone "Killington is Amazing" Thread

Stairway to heaven, cheap way to get open early, one of the better moves Powdr has made, The umbrella bars replacing that eyesore of the Barney Room addition to the KBL. +1,000,000 I love the Stairway and the whole early season vibe at the North Ridge with the music and the beer and food. Everybody...

Re: Do Fat Skis Perform as Well as Narrow Skis on Hardpack?

I always go for a high performance all mountain ski. I prefer the underfoot to be less than 80 and a radius of 14. Currently on K2 Crossfire that has performed well in all conditions.

Re: WWYD if your kid was taken out by someone 3x his/her size?

...When ski patrol arrived they made it a point to say you should never let the person that hit you leave the scene .... I'd be all for ski patrol stepping it up to pull passes or gating off additional high traffic areas. When hearing of this kind of incident, my first thought is usually, "Wha...

Walloped @ K

Re: So what's next for Killington Resort?

Re-open the old Bittersweet headwall - this year. I like the new section added to Bittersweet but would like the option of skiing the old headwall. I can't understand the logic of closing this - it can't be traffic related given the other bad intersections that exist on the mountain.
