That debunks the "deep-pockets inheritance" story.According to a document submitted to the state, the lift projects at Killington were spurred by Federal tax reform.

Way cool. Likely will need to take advantage of the 5 acres they banked by closing Juggernaut to widen the trail a bit.

Re: North Ridge Quad
I like to eat what I kill. Really whats the point otherwise? I can't find a good recipe for bicknell thrush. Any one have a good recipe? I can always tear it down from the wings and roast it. Just looking for something better.

Re: North Ridge Quad
So what we have for next season is:
- fine/finish grading at the 2018 tunnels
- the new North Star tunnel
- new North Ridge quad chairlift
- possible start of the Killington base lodge
- continued snowmaking improvements
Anything else? That's a pretty good year following a huge 2018.
