Beast of the East
Killington is the tallest DH mountain in New England and serviced by perhaps the fastest lift - a gondola which is great to relax in - they load the bikes. Water is provided at top and bottom. The trails are well maintained and not overly eroded, they connect by fast open gravel roads. They started to put in maching on some trails, but only as segments - not complete trails, which makes them a blast. The Gravity Coast guys will be building new trails and they will have three lifts servicing the park in the coming years - complete with man made FR stuff. If you love 10-15 minute runs and 5 minute lifts - (who doesn't) this place is the best. Summit restaurant is a bonus but very expensive. Parking is right near the lift. Without a doubt it has the single best run down out of every mountain in NE.
