Re: 2013-2014 Season Pass Pricing
Bubba/Mike - Thanks for the early notice - this is really good news. Understood more details will be provided with the general announcement. A couple of question close to home for my crew. Will college passes be offered again in 2013-14? Will 2013-14 early renewals grant summer benefits for mountain...

I am much better prepared next time request the extra tickets . Hope that big dump materializes Fri/Sat and many o...

Re: Has snowboarding lost its edge?
Many of the boarders I know have switched to teles.. They got tired of pushing around on one foot all the time. I think NTN bindings and 100mm+ decent performing skis helped that progression. I am still boarding and skiing with my heals clamped down- not ready to sink the money into more gear and le...

Re: EPIC SNOWS DEC 15th to late January.
Yup - I agree about the Single Chair Weather blog being optimistic. There are a bunch of predictive models and bunch of views on the weather - some are more accurate than others. The 3-5 day out hurricane forecasts have been surprisingly good over the past several years. I am always looking to be we...

Re: EPIC SNOWS DEC 15th to late January.
Kzone has some very educated weather consumers. I was impressed when someone posted a chart showing a very strong low pressure system we now know as Sandy about five days before it came ashore on coastal NJ. I had seen a swell forecast in FL also about five days out in the future for the same storm ...

Canyon Quad
Based on the NR cam it looks like the canyon quad is turning (likely for testing) and maybe a weekend first opening. Any snow or guns (other than natural) on spillway?

Re: All Lifts Opened at 8am This Weekend! Nice!
Since he has been visiting at the lifts and visible on the hill early this season, I took the time at the K1 loading area to thank Mike Solimano for the 8am opening. No question he appreciated the kudo and he saw our crew was smiling and happy about it. Make an extra effort to get out early when the...

Re: Another one bites the dust....
Had a friend hit from behind by a skier about 11:30am today (11/23) just before the steep part of part of mousetrap. Skier was going very fast -all we heard was "look out" before a big crash. Fortunately neither was hurt. After sorting out the mess - we continued down and a nearly straight...

Ski Center in DC does superb work. They will take their time to get the fit and alignment right. Ask for Brian B.

Re: Demographic / customer groups that are leaving Killington
For those who may be tallying lost revenue for PWDR and the access road businesses - my group is not coming up this weekend. Instead we are going to the UMD/UVA lax game and doing yard work. As of 3/17 I was planning to bring up my family and 3-4 PA ski buds this weekend who would have bought day ti...
