I find this hard to believe, seeing as the site says nothing about this early opening. I need some proof

I've heard a lot of bad things said about skiing in the East but no one's ever told me your mountains open in October! I ski at Whistler and I have to wait another month! Damn you!

i really am almost positive killy will not be open tommorow. it would say something on their site, check snow report it says sometime in the next week or so.


I thought the skis made you good. I got the skis and it turned out I was wrong. It must be the clothes.

Tuesday is too soon. They will open Thursday or Friday, Top to Bottom, so said Steve. Of course, that is a Might open those days, and maybe top to bottom. It is possible that this will or will not happen, but who to know.

There is another large cold mass dropping from Canada on the map, at least the map I just looked at, which means another few days of snow making temps into next week, Maybe ! ;o)

thats straight off the killy meeage board

soi you guys dont believe me? hows this
(Freeze talking about movie tour)'The Tour has a day off today but will travel to Killington, Vermont, to be in place to take advantage of opening day on Tuesday. If you are in the area, come joing Morrison, Douglas, Mercon, Collins, and others in celebration of the opening of the season. See you there or see you in Saratoga on Tuesday night!'
That was posted on freeze this morning. so i am basing my info on k town opening on that, and on killingotns website which has pics of lots of snow.

Ill be there - doug and I are going friday morning - weee! it's an annual thing - this'll be year #4...weeee! I cant wait - my car is in the shop right now specifically getting tuned for a 13 hr drive. Anyone have a place for us to stay? Howard Johnson usually does - he lives in Rutland - and is around 60 bucs / night. if anyone wants - they can crash with doug and I there - and that could help offset the cost:-)

I'm probably going up Friday night to stay at my aunt's house in Ludlow, VT... its about 15 min away, thats the town that Okemo is at...

If anyone needs a place to stay Friday night, throw me a message/email/IM/call... I might be able to work something out, depending if my aunt is going to be there or not.
