I'm going to KIllington for my first time this weekend... I probably won't be able to explore the whole mountain in one day so what are the best parks/glades/trails/runs in general? In short, what is the best of Killington?

The best actual skiing is the mountain farthest to the left on the trail map. A good small park is on the far right of the mountain. Then, obviously the Stash is somewhere but there is signs everywhere.

When I was there a few weekends ago, patsy's glade was by far the most fun run there. There was still a lot of powder even though it was like 5 days after the storm. Patsy's glade on Bear Mt I believe.

best park is dream maker, take the sky peak quad from bear,

best glades are on bear. devils den is dopee,the entering is right next to devils fiddle which is also sick, also growler and centerpiece which are on the left and right of outer limits, you can spot them out on bear quad

lastly there is this trail called roundabout that is a really fun glade if you like moguls, to find it u have to keep going like ur going down the stash but keep going straight. ull find it.

have fun, caus killington is awesome

Killington is super sweet. Dream maker has some fun rails to choose from, jumps aren't massive but fun none the less. The mass of the mountain itself makes it impossible not to have fun. Enjoy!

Tons of snow, great conditions. You'll have a real good time. Big park is dreammaker which is off the Skye Peak quad. Small-intermediate park is Timberline on Ramshead. Tons of snow in the trees, not so much fresh but still fun nonetheless.

Conditions are awesome, and should be quite like spring skiing this weekend with the sun and warmer weather.

Might be a bit crowded though with the nicer weather.
