Northeast Ski Trivia Thread

**Greg** · May 12, 2005, 7:56 AM

Let's use this thread to come up with some Northeast/New England skiing trivia questions. Here are the rules:

Northeast ski trivia only.
Only one active trivia question at a time.
Once it's answered the member that correctly answered it has the option of posting a new question, or forfeiting.
To forfeit, simply reply with "forfeit".
If a turn is forfeited, any member can post the next question.

I'll start:

What is the only Northeast ski area that straddles a state border, with skiable terrain in two states?

In what year did Killington hold the first May 1st fun slalom?

tree_skier · May 12, 2005, 8:52 AM

In the good ol'days it was the June 1st fun slalom

The really good old days started out with a May 1st Slalom. The June 1st slalom did not come until quite a while longer.

1962

It was first held in 1961.

The k-mart website said this was the 44th annual so the math say 62.

What were the original trail names at Maple Valley?

What is the month date and year of Killington's earliest opening day ever (lift serviced)?
