Staff Report

Killington Resort has announced its own treat this Halloween.

The slopes will open for skiers and boarders Sunday, two weeks earlier than planned.

Communications Manager Tom Horrocks said the resort is opening as a result of a massive snowmaking effort by resort employees over the past couple days with freezing or near-freezing temperatures resulting in snow coverage sufficient for good skiing and riding.
Horrocks said Killington Peak received 10 inches of snow Tuesday and Wednesday. The ski area started making snow early Tuesday morning.

For an up to the minute snow report and information on the resort?s opening, see www.killington.com.

When I was in Ski Club a few years ago , Killington was my favorite palce to ski.

At least one type of business should do well this winter with such an early start.

LF they are ownd by a company in Utah since last year and doing very good. It appears so far that there are more positive things then with the last company.
