KILLINGTON'S SPRING PASS

March 15th 2010 11:04
With high snow base depths and an impressive roster of open
trails, Vermont's Kilington ski resort is well positioned for a
strong and lengthy spring skiing and reason season, perhaps
extending well into May.

A bargain basement priced "2010 Spring Pass" is now on sale
for only US$169. The pass offers unlimited lift access from March
22 through the end of the season. If you plan to ski Killington
at least three days, you'll be well ahead of the lift ticket price game
by purchasing the pass.

The resort is also selling it regular slate of 2010-11 season pass

products at discounted rates now. Those who buy next season's
pass can ski and ride the rest of this season, commencing March
22 at no charge.
