1980's Killington Advertisements

I have about 25 years worth of Ski/Skiing and Snow Country magazine's and I thought it would be neat to share some of the killington ad's touting their resort:

I kinda liked Snow Country Mag, too bad it only lasted a few years.

Just for jollies I would be interested in comparing the Ski mag Readers Surveys when they first started and the latest. Whether you think they are worth much or not, some of the market does take notice of the results, including the resorts. Just check out the print ads for Smuggs.

I love the ski to June part! I wish we could still do that!

You just have to live at the bottom of the ski hill to make it worth the effort.
