Even if the rest of the mountain got a little less snow-making and they closed a weekend earlier than they could have isn't it worth it to have the Dew Tour?
For the mountain? From their perspective, perhaps.
For most of the people that ski Killington, which has a significantly greater portion of people and owners in the area there to actually ski as opposed to say, Okemo, I'd say most definitely not.
They agreed to host the event, they ought to budget for what it requires, in snowmaking as well. If they can't afford it without shortchanging the skiing (obviously, the trail closures/crowds during the event are understandable) for the paying customers during the rest of the season, then they shouldn't be holding the event.
I'm not saying they will, I'm hopeful that they "get it" as far as expectations goes.
