it’s game on for the stowe/smugglers notch gondola interconnect… so do you think stowe is going to be dropping ticket prices or is smuggs gonna be raising theirs?

^ Well that sucks.
I won't be shocked if it gets blocked by some environmental group.

Hey I am planning a presidential traverse run in a few days. Has anyone been up there lately to ski and have an idea how much snow and ice i will cross? I know the usual gulleys and bowls hold snow but usually the ridge is clear in June.
Any beta out there?
Basically should I bring traction?
Thanks!

They can’t even build a parking lot on the stowe side, but they think that is going to work?

the originator of this thread portended a big finish.
we doubted it was coming til the ides of march.
2.5 months later killington finally closed superstar.
in spite of 12 of may's 14 operating days being bathed in warm sun,
the trail showed no stress til the week before memorial day weekend.
via webcam we watched ops make things good as new.
after memorial day, the snowpack appeared to be coming apart.
thursday morning, after a full night of precision grooming, K opened with top to bottom coverage, and closed with the same, minus some vert rugged brown and chunky bumps for last half dozen turns.
A BIG FINISH IT WAS and all the better, VT-freeheel was there, and finshed his day skiing in jeans. (sorry no pics)

Ok let’s get this straight-
I see a lift , I’m certain skiing is happening and I’m sure people are being served.
That’s my hill.

It was a great party. Ben O and J Diggs were so stinking fast on the up, it was insane.
Great music by Saints & Liars, Bow Thayer Band with Krishna Guthrie on bass, and they did a 5 song set together at the end. June 3 and most spectating folks had at least a down puffy on when the closed out at 8:00pm.
I'm going to go ski that patch in a bit.
