You two supplied all with Wild Turkey and/or Honey Wild Turkey (yummm)?
No.
The first time loading on the triple, Mister Moose dropped a ski pole, picked it up, and got grabbed by the chair 20 feet behind the loading line. The chair stopped right at the loading line so I got deluxe service.
The second time, we were getting on with a chickie Ambassador on tele gear in between us. The chair seat was all iced up and they really bumped it as it loaded. I was on the right hand side and slid right off the seat. I opted to bail out to the right rather than try to haul myself back on. Mister Moose and the ambassador bailed out, too. That's the first time I've done that since the OL lift in 1988.
Oh, OK. Sorry for you and Moose's mishaps. I guess the Honey Wild Turkey is for me then.

Snowmaking is in full swing, and on terrain that hasn't seen guns yet this season, and is not currently being marked as receiving snowmaking on the Killington Trail Report...
If we dodge another bullet next Tuesday -Thursday, whenever that storm happens, then I'd expect well over 100 trails for Killington's 50th anniversary weekend...

Stowe should be nearly 100% open by January. Aside from the terrain, tree skiing and snow, Stowe's biggest advantage is that they have 2 lifts with over 2,000 ft of vert. Some of the most sustained vert in the east.
Biggest concern about January is that it can be very, very cold up there.
