CDX plywood with dirt on it may be? It looked like chipboard when I first saw and said they could not be that lame.

Draw your own conclusions from these photos:
So, what you're telling us...
Is that Killington's got wood for this upcoming early season?

It's actually paper mache...

Weird, I thought the boards were made out of compacted wood pellets from Les Otten's new business.
Short term solution.

It should last at least 10 years...but I would think they would build some sort of upper mountain lift before that.

The composite stuff might not hold up so well to ski boots and shovels.
I thought the benefit of composites these days is durability. Some that I've walked on are a bit more 'grippy' as well. Wet lumber can be a bit sketchy to walk on in ski boots.
I was referring to a future lift solution, rather than the life of the material used to construct the walkway.

That composite stuff will take a beating from boots and shovels way better than any wood, that's the point - and grip as well.
