Another solution would be to run more shuttles between the bases. Vail runs a great shuttle bus system, there is even an app for the phone showing where the bus is.

My thinking is that Sunday is quieter because many skiers come up for the weekend, stay out late on Saturday, cant get out of bed Sunday morning, need to drive back home six hours, and they don't want to waste a ticket on Sunday for only 2 hours of skiing.

I have an EGO Mower, String trimmer and blower. I am so impressed with the quality and engineering of this brand. I have an 1/3 acre property and can cut the grass, use the trimmer and blower all on one battery charge. Its a big battery, 56V 5 AH. I highly recommend this brand of cordless...

The issue I see with the mega pass is when you want to ski with a friend and they don't have the same pass you have.

I am very disappointed in the new K Tickets pricing. In the past I felt they were a good deal for someone like myself who can only get to Killington 4 to 8 weekends each winter. In the past I would buy 7 K tickets and get one free. That allowed me to ski either 4 weekends Sat + Sun, or 8...

I am not clear why there are so many negative comments about the aging lifts at Smuggs, other than a slow double lift may suck as far as the user experience, there is no reason that those lifts cant be used for many many more years, all you need to do is look down the street, at the single...

I just purchased my first pair of Stockli, the Montero ax - 80 / 168, I am 5'11'' & 220 lbs. I have been skiing for 60 years and never had more than one pair of skis at a time. For the last 30 years I was on all sorts of Volkls and loved each one, but these Stockli skis are amazing. If you...

When you get off the ferry in Bridgeport, its only 4 hrs to Killington. I like the ferry but it is not cheap $$$

My father and I did that back in the day, when Smugs was still called Madona, it was an easy trek and easy to find. I enjoy your posts and people like Vter are what makes this website unenjoyable at times. We are all adults and don't need the nanny police to protect us!

WHAT? " I doubt we will ever see westway open again as those saplings just keep getting bigger and bigger, and who knows what shape annapurna is in." Are you kidding me? I haven't been to Hunter in a while, but that is the mountain I grew up skiing at and loved the west side, its part of what...

I subscribe to his newsletter and really enjoy the content and his writing style.

That's strange, I just flew with Delta, JFK to Denver and paid $30 for my suitcase and $40 for my ski bag and boot bag combo.

I skied Juggernaut once top to the bottom where it connects to Great Eastern. From your picture the top portion has grown in quite a bit, it used to be much wider. I was fortunate because the trail was in great condition and the snow was fast, but I still had to pole and skate a lot...

Thank you!

Today was definitely a bubble day at Killington

I skied there last year for the first time and really liked it. I was always under the impression that it was a boring mountain, but was pleasantly surprised to see some good terrain. The place is well run but very expensive if you buy a day ticket at the last minute like we did.

I am looking for recommendations on ski shops within a one hour drive of Boston that usually has good deals and selection on skis/boots/binding, etc.

I lived in Southern California for 10 years. I’ve skied Baldy many times I’ve also skied Kratka Ridge, Mount Waterman and all the areas up in big bear. Baldy is head and shoulders above anything in Southern California, it’s better than anything in Vermont. They have some great tree skiing...

Giant Killer at Pico

I belong to a ski club, I have been a member since 1994. Our club is Long Island based and our house is at the base of Pico. My father belonged to a ski club based in New Jersey and their house is in Chittenden, VT. There are many pros in my case and few cons.. My pros are: lower cost of...
