Hey guys - Can we add Killington?  I know alot of the Dakers go there.

Selfishly, there was a pre-arranged family trip for the Saturday before Memorial day heading to the Stowe area.  I am wondering if Killington will be an option of 5/27 or 5/28.  On the snow says as of 4/4 their projected close date is 5/28

You need to check out the entire Eastern Closing list:

Killington officially got the "J" month as a target. And another 5 have mentioned May.

There might be only 6 ski areas still open in New York this weekend, but there are many more just outside the state's borders.

Plattekill – April 8 (tentative Saturday only)
Woods Valley – April 9 (tentative – Friday-Sunday only)
Hunter – April 9 (weekend only)
Belleayre – April 16 (tentative – Friday-Sunday only)
Whiteface – April 16 or more (tentative. After next Monday, will reopen on weekend only)
Gore – TBD


Still 98 ski areas in the East still hoping to spin this weekend:

Québec : 48
Vermont : 13
New Hampshire : 9
New York : 6
Maine : 5
Ontario, Newfoundland & Labrador, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia & Massachusetts : 2 each

It ain't over... ski season is never over, you just have to go further to find snow.

***Update: Friday May 19, 3:00pm: The MSS crew couldn't save the snow; the heatwave killed St-Sauveur season this week. MSS's last day was Saturday May 13.

K has the only lift spinning.

I believe I might have a date... but now I need to go to bed as I might have plans tomorrow (I look into it this weekend). If it's not crazy wet tomorrow, I'll head down to K town tomorrow morning for late turns. After that, midweek (somewhere between May 30 and June 2) in the US: Otto Rhodes and/or Kmart if they respin.

Here is this week's rundown:

This is what I have/found....

Peek N Peak : last weekend was March 25-26
Willard – April 2 (extremely tentative – weekend only) as written in my first Closing Thread post week 1. It does seem like they were open that weekend.

Hope this helps.

THANK YOU Mad Pat.

Here is one last one for the season...

One last post for one last day of lift serve skiing in the East. "Do it up"
