pretty empty parking lot for a beautiful day on a Saturday. Surprised more people weren't there knowing this is the final weekend.

That's the Snowshed lot. There were plenty of folks in Bay 1 and along the access rd.



Awesome day! Unfortunately was my last of the year.

Some pics from our day.

It was moderately crowded. Couple minute wait most of the day, lots of people in the bar, on the deck and up and down the road and parking bays.
If they can't make money running one lift and grooming one trail on a day like yesterday, I really think there's something completely wrong with the way they run it.
I'd have bought and appreciated if they had food & drinks outside close to the superstar lift. It's not far to k1 lodge, but on a beautiful day like yesterday, it's gross inside.

I was actually referring to the K1 lot picture, 5 down from the top. I know the Snowshed lot would be empty.

good to hear that it was busier than that picture of the parking lot made it look.

Wow, really good coverage there. Normally I would insert a closing jab here, but I'll be skiing next weekend at Jay so I could care less about K closing today.

Gotcha. Yeah it filled in more as the day went on. I feel like there were as many people on the access rd BBQing and drinking beer as there were on the hill.

I'll be skiing Jay next week as well, but Killington was well worth it this weekend.....

Andy, this is a beautiful picture....I am in Disney with the girls...don't tell my wife, but I'd rather be bashing those bumps....

Although, it was very cool to see my baby enamoured with the princesses.... .
