Superstar - Spring Skiing Icon in the Northeast.

Superstar - Spring Skiing Icon in the Northeast.

There are quite a few people in offices around the Northeast this morning sitting at work nursing goggle tans. While Easter Weekend at Killington is never "busy" from a traditional sense, there were still thousands of people who enjoyed spring skiing on the mountain Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

We are now entering a season of change at Killington. Just like in the early winter, as they resort tries to make an orderly expansion of skiable terrain, the inverse takes place in the spring. Today, for instance, the resort has 4 primary lifts operating (Superstar, K1 Gondola, Snowdon Quad, Snowshed Quad. Of course, the 4 lifts access tens of miles of terrain for skiing and riding, but it does take a little bit more planning and local knowledge to get around the resort this time of year.

At the inn, we have also started to contract our business with the change in season. This weekend was the last weekend of the winter season for our restaurant. We will re-open it once again in a couple of months for the summer season at Killington, but for now the staff is off enjoying spring in the mountains of New England. (Many left to hike and camp at Tuckerman's Ravine on Mount Washington for a few days.)

The inn will be open through April to serve lodging guests. Stop bye for a beverage in the bar in the Great Room if you find yourself in Killington challenging the bumps on Superstar.

Think Spring!
