Skiing Killington, VT Top to Bottom - Longest Possible Route

[@JohnShields-xx1yk]

Everyone should get a chance to ski, it's an amazing sensation, and the views on a clear day of the surrounding views are almost a religious feeling, at least for me it was, great video, thank you.

[@maverik15j]

As an interested skier from Ohio this is the content I’m looking for!! Ty.

[@deathrooster14]

Honestly its probably the only area worth going to for this part of the country. Either that or the UP of Michigan which is just as far.

[@jameshayes6366]

I learned to ski at killington and actually took a path pretty similar to this at the end of my second day skiing. It’s a beautiful mountain

[@jasonhu2105]

I wish I could go skiing along this route too. Looks great!Thanks for sharing !

[@DailyPassenger]

places like these makes you love life so much 💗 Very Nice Virtual Tour :) Wonderful and AWESOME!! 👍👍👍😊😊

[@daneg]

places like Killington generally made me want to never ski again. massive overcrowding and huge lift ticket prices. there are much quieter places in VT with as good or better terrain for all levels. not that Killington doesn't have great runs. it's just hard to get your money's worth unless you luck out on a low population day.

[@jasonwilk5539]

Was just there yesterday. Conditions weren’t ideal but still had a great day. Love that Mountain!

[@MandyRead]

Thank you for this! I love Killington and I love long and easy trails to cruise on :)

Magnifique ❤❤❤

[@mbtravel7294]

You guys make my day every time you drop a vid. Been skiing often at mountain creek this year ,but hope to make it further north soon 🙏

[@braeden2966]

Creek is so fun but gets a little repetitive, killington is amazing tho

[@mbtravel7294]

If your from the states, I highly suggest trying some Europe resorts, they have a completely different feel to them and it’s great

[@raymondbordonaro7408]

Yea let me just take a trip to Europe real fast brb

[@phantomdevil6834]

Yeah mate do it

[@Hokiebird428]

I think it’s because in Europe there are trails of all difficulty levels (including beginner and intermediate trails) that are located above the tree line. Whereas in the US, you’ll typically only find bowls above the tree line, and no actual trails. And that’s if you’re lucky enough to visit a resort that reaches higher than the tree line.

[@thepronoob1529]

He's been to european resorts like the tunnel run in alpe d'huez

[@daneg]

@@Hokiebird428 rockies in the west, lots of powder, deep and fluffy. in the northeast, the mountains are lower. I think Jay Peak in northern VT claims the highest vertical, but to me that always just meant colder not better. eastern US/CA is edgey and icy. I'd say that's the more significant difference. one of the better areas (IMO) are Mount St. Anne near Quebec City, CA. not gonna lie though, I was only interested in diamonds and moguls while on skis. intermediate and easy trails for the snowboard though! 😅

[@WilenskyFamily-o7s]

What camera are u using to record? Its amazing!

[@IfReborn]

skiing the path of the old great eastern trail, the original. the best expert top top to bottom run at Killington is Catwalk > High Traverse > Launch pad > Bittersweet > Vertigo head wall > The Stairs > Carpenters run> Home strech/Greateastern > Valley Plunge. that is the best top to bottom for an expert, in the humble opinion someone who has skied at Killington since he was 3.

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

We might look into that next time. Thanks!

[@Shawn-wt4kh]

Yep, this is the longest route at Killington! The only negative is that sometimes the guns are going full blast on Launch Pad across Superstar and it creates zero visibility. But otherwise I love ripping turns on Great Eastern.

[@cherylzocco6055]

Awesome!

[@buddybuythis3889]

Will re-do this run for myself when I get back up there next time!!! Love it! You guys should do the quickest run from Top to Bottom. 7 mins is my bet.

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

We can surely try... the cam work might suffer. :o)

[@miketorre16]

awesome video... what kind of skis do you have and whats the width?

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

With Jake (the skier in the video) is kinda hard to tell. Not only he keeps swapping his skis all the time, he also paints their top sheet so you can hardly tell what they are... 🤣

[@miketorre16]

@@skiwithgenerationsnow oh okay. Lol. Thanks man

☘ Irish Honey Badger - Killington/Pico 💘

[@daneg]

posting before i watch to see the actual route, but if memory servers, the longest possible route is boring af because it's a green trail that goes from killington peak all the way to the bottom of the mountain on the far side of the ski resort, and you're almost polling your way for long stretches.

[@daneg]

not quite the route I had in mind. but I vaguely remember great eastern. best trail name at killington: duck soup. heh.😀

[@TheCreditShifu]

Yeah you can make the top more exciting with some blues and then there are greens towards the bottom. I think what you are thinking of is a run called Solitude that yes, the first 20 mins or so is basically cross country skiing, pretty much flat and then it turns into a long mellow green in the woods.

[@troykeeling9752]

Kmart still looks good.

[@MikeTork]

Bluebird day is the first clear day AFTER a major dump.

[@Shitty796]

Going up tomorrow morning you still up there?

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

Missed the comment. But will be back soon.

[@Denis_Korchagin]

Is it really LONGEST route in the Killington ski area ? If I correctly understood - it is only 4 miles (6.4 km) - little longer than longest route in the olympic Sochi (Roza Khutor) - about 5.5 km :-).

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

Yes. This is the North East USA, the mountains arent that big. Probably longer routes out west.

[@Denis_Korchagin]

@@skiwithgenerationsnow West - Western coast of USA, or Canada (Whistler, BC) ?

[@NGRSnow]

They used to claim 10 miles on Juggernaut. Multiple sections of that are abandoned, though and they were fibbing a little, as you had to take Juggernaut, Juggernaut Too, ride the Northeast Passage Triple, and finish Juggernaut to the bottom of the gondola to get ten miles.

[@Denis_Korchagin]

@@NGRSnow Ten miles (16 km) - very nice non-stop ski route :-)

[@NGRSnow]

@@Denis_Korchagin non stop is relative. Parts of it were pretty flat, and the other parts were really flat. Fun experience, though.

[@andrewfischer8564]

at one time it was named 4 mile trail
