Get your last Gondi licks today. All we will have is Sup after Sunday.

Been trying to stay off sup as that’s all we’ll have in the future.

Goes to show, you don't never know
Watch each card you play, and play it slow
Don't you let that deal go down

Looks like its going down no matter what I do !!!

2014 - "A South Ridge trail is Pipe Dream. A South Ridge lift shouldn't be."
2019 - "A South Ridge trail is Pipe Dream. A South Ridge lift (operating midweek) shouldn't be."
2023 - Killington announces that the South Ridge lift will run five days a week.
2024 - Killington lied.

Late afternoon grooming. interesting grooming pattern - a few swipes low, then winch up from tower 4 leaving the middle untouched. Do they then push down Preston's or reset the winch anchor somewhere lower and winch Preston's from there?

Thanks for that photo 180. I'm sure you and your buddies from Hunter enjoyed skiing it all day and hope you get to continue skiing it into June.

Ask Brian Huges on Facebook, he is probably the operator. Lower passes grabbing snow for lift access?

Spent most of the day on Downdraft as it was in prime spring glory. Did the power hour on Supe. We have a long month of bumps coming up. We miss you!

Damn those are my favorite kind of moguls, not too big, not too small, nice spacing, no ice, soft snow! Wish I was there!!

WOW Downdraft looks awesome. I never got to ski that trail in early season but am glad that my ski friends will be able to ski it as long as possible even though you will have to hike over to get to it. I've done that in the past and hopefully you will still have the runout and won't have to walk out because then it becomes a one and done.
