Killington is going to open before Sunday River this season.

You're an idiot.

Maybe not. I saw the gondi running on the web cam earlier. It's possible some skied today.

Open means open, not some private testing.

Well tomorrows private for season & E passes only. Does that mean Sunday River wins?

 

[VTKilarney]

IMHO, yes, but technically no. But remember that the prediction was that Killington would beat SR.

SR can still beat K. K announced they're not opening until 11am tomorrow.

Uh oh!

Here is my definition of "open": Lift serviced skiing made available to purchasers of a ticket or pass that was made available to the general public at some point in time. (e.g. A season pass would qualify)

Nobody has made any claims regarding staying open - just who arrives at the party first.

I believe SR said they will close for the rest of the week after tomorrow.

Two resorts open tomorrow. Nothing wrong with that.

That's not the point, we all know that & it's a good thing. The point is how many will open Tues. Personally I don't care since it will likely be a few more weeks before I start skiing anyway. Just pointing out that there has been discussion about staying open in the past & I guess since I started it there will be discussion again.

Sorry, I meant nobody on this forum made such a claim.

Welcome to like 2010. That's been a perennial issue/bone for contention.

Along with who will have top to bottom first & who has the most terrain open.

Exactly.

Well, for tomorrow unless things change, Sunday River will win. They open at 9am vs Killington opening at 11am.

I drove through some snow in the catsills Sat night in Liberty on rte 17 glad my snow tires were on from Itahca hiking to snow probably more fell this tim at hunter windasm and bell and hunter being all east of plattty I guess season will statrt soon.

Killington is making an effort to open "for the season", rather than opening for a random day for lame marketing bragging rights. They get the win on my scorecard.
