Killington to open again; and 10 scary ski trails

Posted Thursday, November 12, 2009
— Fall & early season, Killington, Stowe, Smugglers' Notch, Mad River Glen

Killington resumes its sporadic early-season skiing on Friday and Saturday, November 13 and 14. Sunday’s operational status is on hold pending weather and snow conditions.

An interesting top-10 list was released recently: the World's Scariest Ski Slopes. Vermont actually made the list three times with Goat at Stowe; Black Hole at Smugglers' Notch; and Paradise at Mad River Glen.

I've skied two out of the three. How 'bout you?
