In one's haste to find the perfect powder, the focus tends to be on the west. There, popular powerhouses such as Breckenridge, Vail and Lake Tahoe rule the scene like the starting quarterback in your high school years. These resorts must be of a good quality (otherwise they wouldn't be nearly as popular) and they are. However, when planning the perfect ski outing, sometimes grandiose isn't the way to go. That's when Killington, Vermont should catch your attention. The lush powder runs, challenging diamonds and kid friendly greens make this resort the perfect place for your next big trip or just a weekend outing. For the more adrenaline-fueled thrill junkies, the perfectly groomed Wildfire terrain park is the park to hang out at, and if you're seeking a large amount of vertical drop in a quick dose, the challenging Cascade can be found right next to the Canyon Quad drop point. For your mid day mean, you can dine at the resort lodge located at the top of the K-1 Express lift. Here, the great food revitalizes your body and prepares you for the rest of the day. The food is surprisingly low priced and amazingly filling. When your day is done, the village is a great place to relax with friends, have a drink with a stranger or find someone to race on the slopes the next day. No matter what you seek, whether you're looking for a family outing destination or the place to go to alone for your next fix, Killington, Vermont should definitely be one of the resorts you consider.
