Sorry Killingtonians...no new snowmaking, groomers, or lifts this year. POWDR has bought an "action entertainment production company" named Human Movement Management :blink:

What does this have to do with Killington? K already has the best snowmaking & grooming. All we need is a South Ridge lift. No biggy. Or do you just like to rub salt. Stick to the Burke thread or I'll have Cumming revoke your Snowbird pass.

I just know that Killington folks get pissed whenever their owner invests money into other businesses. And I was being tongue in cheek like you are here.

Apparently Killington fanboys can give but not take.
Who's not taking? I already know that K will not be putting in a new South Ridge chair this year. They seem to be focusing improvements on summer activities. They've already submitted Act 250's for a mountain coaster & two new zip lines all located at Snowshed. They are also expanding their mountain bike offerings & have hired the firm that designed Whistlers mountain bike terrain. One of the U-Bars will also be moved down to Snowshed this season. As for winter their only plans that I know of is improving their snowmaking with new pipe & pumping capacity plus lift maintenance above & beyond normal yearly maintenance. KSC is also reinstalling a mid-station on the Snowdon triple which it had years ago. K has been way behind other areas with their summer offerings & I can understand them wanting to up their game for this market. Yes it would be nice to have new lifts but K already offers the most skiing of any area in New England. I can wait for further winter improvements.
