You know what? As much as I complain about Powdr, they did one hell of a job this season. I say keep them for a bit longer.

 

[Puck it]

I think the state should lease it back.

Oops, wrong thread!

What if GSS were to buy Killington

Whats up with Les Otten.?

Whats up with Les Otten.?

Failed candidate for Governor of Maine. Still selling pellet furnaces I guess.

We used to say "LES OTTEN - MORE SNOWBOARDING!!!"

Getting back on topic, the conditions Killington provided this year were exceptional. We had thaw freeze cycles in the past that would have resulted in sheets of ice on the mountain. This year, Killington did a hell of a job grooming the crap out of that stuff so that the following morning, no ice. Yet, they didn't go groomer crazy, only groomed as required. Snow making was off the wall beginning of season, one reason I thought they may be aiming to stay open longer and was very dissapointed when they didn't.

So how long was Fiddle open?

Not sure, didn't get to Bear as much as I would have liked.

And the only weekend OL wasn't groomed was the first weekend it was open. Ovation was kept flat and Escapade, Breakaway, and Powerline all saw the cold, deathly touch of the groomer. The Killington Peak headwalls weren't open until, actuall, I don't know. Long enough so that I didn't ski them until the end of the season.

Definately a step back from last year.

Second or third weekend in January until they closed Bear. People were doing shuttle runs to ski it instead of OL.

You're right, thanks for the reminder.... Wait, they did Powerline?

The will to groom is strong in this one.

I'm just surprised they were even able to get a groomer down Powerline!

They groomed Roundabout this season. If they could groom Roundabout, they could groom anything.

Steezy, totally.
