Killington
Vermont, United States★4.5editor's rating
Killington - 'The Beast of the East' - spreads across six peaks in central Vermont with 3,050 feet of vertical, the most in New England. An enormous snowmaking system (2,600 guns) delivers the longest season in the East, typically November into late May, with legendary spring bumps on Superstar, Woodward terrain parks, and a rowdy access-road après scene.
