Re: Killington vs. Ski Sundown...
Since I was in New Hartford today, I stopped by to take a look. Grainy, but here's Gunbarrel and a lone skier this afternoon. Bumps look in good shape from below (which is always deceiving)

Re: Killington vs. Ski Sundown...
It was nice meeting you and the rest of the AZoners too as well as Bob Switzgable, the owner of Ski Sundown. It turned out to be a great day with the sun warming things up.2knees wrote:just want to say iceman is incredible and give a thanks for all the killington guys who showed up today. amazing talent and an amazing comp.

If the bumps & party are better at Sundown next year, at least it won't be a very long drive.
