This one is appropriate, since there aren't any glades off the NRT anymore.

haha, no glades of the nrt. right. yep. :smash:

 

[JerseyJoey]

There are no gladed runs off the North Ridge Triple. None!! I've been looking for glades off that chair for 30 years now and I haven't found any. Nope. Not a one. Tell your friends.

Actually, there's a pretty amazing intermediate glade off that lift. It's just that you'd better have AT gear to do the mile and a half slog out at the bottom and you really want to have a spare car parked at the trail head.

 

[icedtea]

do you mean by that shack all those dirty hippies go to?

 

[Highway Star]

I think you guys read a bit to much in to things sometimes.

 

[WJenness]

I think you guys read a bit to much in to things sometimes.

I think you take people too seriously sometimes.

We're all excited the season's here, we're ready to get out there. I'm sure people are looking forward to meeting you.

I would be if I was going to be at Killington.

You're passionate about the sport, and you've got a lot of ideas. People like yourself can do a lot of good for the sport as a whole.

What trails is K supposed to have open by the weekend.

you mean there is tree skiing off the glades triple?

maybe below powerline and between powerline and west glade? maybe off of upper east fall going down into the basin?

What trails is K supposed to have open by the weekend.

My guess:

Open for Thursday:
Great Northern to Chute
Upper Downdraft/Cascade Headwall (whatever they're actually making snow on)
Rime
Reason
Upper East Fall
Lower Bunny Buster
Mouse Trap
Double Dipper Upper
Lower Mouse Run

Friday:
Highline

Saturday:
Upper Mouse Run
Chute
Maybe Conclusion

Sunday:
Lower East Fall
Spillway
Maybe Double Dipper, Downdraft, or Conclusion

 

[BigK]

You will see Conclusion before Downdraft and DD.

Yeah, I'm thinking they'll try to get Conclusion ready for Saturday. Other places open? Cool. Double blacks, though? And 2 lifts spinning for top to bottom skiing?

I'm hoping there's more chest pounding on tap.

 

[BigK]

I'm thinking the Snowdon Quad will be spinning as well, with most of Snowdon barried in snow. Conclusion is the only trail they might hold off on for this weekend. Can't wait to watch new trails added daily!
