    Who stays open the latest on the East Coast?

    Killington?
    How late does Tuckerton’s usually hold snow? May?

    I’d definitely say Tuckerton’s. As the northern most point in Maine, they have snow well into June, sometimes July.

    Tuckertom's can go longer if the winds are from the south.

    Thing is, Tuckerton's can be tricky to get to. You need to take I-93.7 and get off at Francmonicum Nitch, take a left to go south by northwest, and look for signs for Gorman, New Vermont.

    But Tuckerton's has a totally sick magic carpet setup, so even a deep south gaper such as yourself should have no problem reaching the summit. Just remember to use your best Texas Tuck (pole baskets as high in the air as you can get them!) and greet everyone with your friendliest, 'Howdy, y'all!' Damian Sanders will meet you on the Shelburp Trail.

    It's an amazing T-Bar because it appears to be the only one in the world that moves people down the hill. Not even sure how that works--I guess you have to wax with sand to make sure you don't beat your T-bar to the end.

    Eight posts in I was pretty sure no one was going to go there, but Peruvian comes through yet again.

    Looking at that t-bar again I'm pretty sure it only has one bullwheel, so at least two physical impossibilities on the same lift. It's even better than that lift at Killington that used to seemingly have no return chairs for most of the ride.

    I'm pretty sure the pirates working the east coast here have stolen a few boats loaded with coke. They may still have some left and I'm pretty sure they run their operations 24/7/365.
    I'm sure they would love it is DSM stopped by to check it out!

    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.
