New Spring Operating Hours

Posted March 19, 2013

We are in the middle of a major snowstorm that should deliver over a foot of new snow! We have decided that we are going to open Snowdon Quad and the North Ridge Triple an hour early Wednesday March 20 at 8:00 a.m. for first tracks. We hope you can join us for some early turns.   

Also, in our continued effort to regain The Beast of spring title, we’ve just finished another five days of snowmaking and the pile on Superstar is the highest it’s been in recent memory.

In celebration of spring, soft snow and later sunsets, we are extending lift hours.

starting Saturday, March 30:

  • Saturday, March 30: 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
  • Saturday, April 6: 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
  • Saturday, April 13: 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.

Starting Monday, April 15:

  • Monday-Friday: 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
  • Saturdays and Sundays: 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.

 
Base Lodge services will remain open as needed to support the extended lift hours. Please help spread the word.

Thanks,

When I started skiing Killington 25 years ago I always looked forward to skiing into May and I remember a few June 1st records. When everybody shuts down The BEAST keeps on going I hope to see the tradition return, that is why Killington is my favorite place to ski .

I rode Saturday and I needed to write you and say Thank You for maintaining such an awesome mountain. I got only 1 trip this year (sad I know) and I knew it would be to Killington regardless. I mostly cruise the woods, and they were beautiful and powdahfull. All the main trails were in great shape, with not just soft edges, but soft in the middle too. Could've been more crowded (shame on us for not getting there), and knock on wood (my head) I didn't sit on a stopped lift ONCE all day. I saw SP Quad stopped once for a few secs, but I wasn't on it ;) Thanks Again to you and Mother Nature for making my triop to the Beast perfect!

Fantastic, best season ever. You and your team have outdone yourself's. We are planning three more 4day trips this spring because of your dedication to being the King of spring once again. Been a season pass holder about 10 yrs, will continue for life with efforts like yours. Thank you and all of the wonderful staff at Killington/Pico.
