I will take full credit. Love the smell of those freshly cooked sugary delights.

Cut a trail from the break in grade of the groomer connection to Pico so you can ski back and not worry about having to pick up your friends at the Lookout.

like doc says a surface lift isn't a particularly good solution in the south ridge. if that's the solution, then leave it alone. some glade maintenance every couple years is probably a good idea. and sure why more higher end food options in kbl.

Get rid of the stairs loading & unloading K-1. Get rid of the Peak Lodge stairs too. One of these days I'm going to hurt myself.

While it would be a long one, I would gladly take a surface lift up there over nothing.
But if we factor in the lowest cost as well as something K might actually do, more mulch is clearly the answer.
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.

A South Ridge Surface lift, is the most realistic thing you will get there.
