Killington's Superstar Glacier offers exceptional spring skiing conditions with 34 feet of snow, aiming for skiing into mid-June.
Killington Ski Resort in Vermont more than earns the nickname "Beast of the East." After all, it's home to the second-highest summit across the entire Green Mountain range. But that's not its only superlative. It's also the largest ski resort on the East Coast, with six mountain peaks, 19 lifts, 155 trails, a half-pipe, and the highest vertical drop in New England at 3,050 feet.
Great Gulf, a Toronto-based real estate developer, wants to change that. It is planning to invest $3 billion to build a new base village at the mountain over the next 25 years. Its renderings of the development show clusters of luxury homes, two public squares, a large open area called a "ski beach," a fitness grove, forest spa, skating path, panoramic pool, and more than 100,000 square feet of retail and dining space along a pedestrian promenade.
Great news for New England skiers and snowboarders, two ski resorts have officially opened for the 2025/2026 ski season! Both Sunday River and Killington opened to pass holders today, November 12th, for a day of early access before they open to the public on Thursday, November 13th. Killington opened to Killington, Beast365 and Ikon Pass Holders with both the K-1 Express Gondola and the North Ridge Quad spinning starting at 9am.
