Never opened this season, allegedly due to the drought.

    The death of Rod Taylor in the summer of 2014 IMO put a big question mark on the long term future of the entire ski area.  It can only run on the momentum, passion and money of its late leader for so long.

    In the 1973-4 ski season, I am told that the only major ski area of VT to show a profit was Killington.  The year was a terrible season.  There was almost no natural snow, but what was worse: you could not easily buy gasoline.

    Killington made it known, that if you could make it to Killington on a tankful, they would refill your car for the trip home.  (The refill wasn't free and actually a bit more expensive than service stations with gas were charging.)  Skiers turned out.

    I suggest that if Rod Taylor was alive, he would have found the water, just as Killington found the gas.
