same thing happened to me on Sunday. I was pretty pissed but the pow was still great in the woods. I am also curious about this.

Just checked out their website.
  • "As of 2/26/2010 Park will be closed as we continue to dig out from a massive storm.  Go ride pow until the storm is over and we can rebuild
  • Planned rebuild Monday 3/1/10 opening later in the week"

Holy shit, I was really impressed with the park on Timberline.  It flowed so nice.  Went to Killington for the first time in 3 years yesterday.  Gonna have to get out there more often yo.

Rebuild was needed after four feet of snow just completely buried everything.

It's open and looking prime.

I saw a thread last year saying that killington did't have an end of the year park. Its going to be pretty warm this week. Anyone know what they are going to at the end of the season.

We have multiple red barrels but yes Dream Maker and Bear Mountain have closed for the season. However, we have tons of snow in the new Mouse Run park- come check it out, you can get 7 hits in 1 run!

i wish, my season is over. Last weekend was the first time i had been to killington in 5 years and had so much fun at bear, the people seem to be a lot cooler at bear than anywhere else on the mountain. People like to talk about skiing at bear, at k1 peak people like to talk about conditions last week at killy

I called killington today and they said they've been getting destroyed with the warm weather and rain.  Superstar and the beginner area might be the only things open this weekend.  Anyone know if they'll have any rails or anything up for the weekend?

one lift open superstar quad superstar and top of ovation were real bumped and fun. Some people were hiking up OL theres still decent snow over there but no lift. No park at all is open, but if you like bumps its still pretty fun
