Both will probably open on Saturday, both are equally far away for me. Which will most likely have the most trail / better features?

Killington will have more snow, more terrain, better features AND more people.

Both will officially be open according to their sites.

BUT WHICH WILL BE BETTER?!?!?! (i'm really just in it for rails)

I already have a bias against sunday river because they suck at setting up rails. I need input from the locals!

honestly I would go with killington, because they have a higher altitude and it seemed like their really early season park last year was better, but skiing is skiing... I'll be at the river though.

Killington has not promised a park yet. And sunday river said there will be about 3 features if that (probably a flat box and flat rail and small singal kink) if they have any at all.

I'd rather go to SR but I will be so pissed if there aren't any rails. Killy has at least promised something...
