Hey Guys,

I'm heading down to Killington this weekend for Rails 2 Riches. Problem is, I have not had a chance to ski on snow yet this year and I really need some practice. I also have new skis I need to get use to. Bellow is my trip down friday, does anyone know of any night skiing on anywhere near my route? The closer to Killington, the better.

Now that I think of it, I doubt any night skiing is going this time a year. So now I'm looking for any decent park setup in the lower Maine/NH area open friday.

I will try my best but its 9 hours from where I am to Killy. I guess I could leave around 4am atlantic time and catch the end of the day. They are open until 4-4:40 friday?

And if you take the detour to SR, you can then go the route through Conway NH and across to Killington rather than going straight down and across.

So, if you want some good night skiing, take rt. 302 to Bridgton, ME. Shawnee is my home mountain, but they have amazing night skiing, used to be most in the east until Sunday River got jelly.
