Paul Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Alright boys and girls, it’s on like Donkey Kong! According to Killington’s website, they will be opening this Friday October 19th for Season’s Pass and Express Card holders. Ikon Passholders are required to pick up their lift tickets before heading out. The Ikon Pass is not a direct to lift option at the moment. General public will be welcomed on Saturday the 20th. The K-1 Express Gondola will be spinning and you will access the Peak Walkway for the trip to the North Ridge area. All details about opening weekend are found on Killington’s website via the link. https://www.killington.com/the-mountain/conditions-weather/current-conditions-weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Excellent. Great news. Super stoked by this. A big sign that the season is in position to start soon. Lets hope the wait for Eastern Canada , namely Sommet Saint-Sauveur isn’t too far away now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Ok so here is a situation where it was perhaps a bit too early to self proclaim First to Open in the East. Sunday River opened today too all it would seem, and not just members only, at 10am too. So exactly tied with Killington. Check out the news post on it with photos : https://www.slopeedge.net/content/sunday-river-resort-welcomes-winter-back-with-2018-19-opening-day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 woo! New contender! They will never make it to the last though. And, while Killington intends to open daily, some years they had to close in between weekends and occasional weekends to preserve conditions. I am going Saturday or Sunday: I’ll see how I feel in the morning and depending on which day has the better weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 @Shane I think Killington shifted their opening time from 10 to 9, making them the first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
