True. Though they’ve been banking on it for several years, and succeeding but I think this is the final year on the current contract.

That said Killington is routinely one of the first to open every year. But this year has been warmer than past years….evidenced not only by the mountain problems, but the lake effect snow vomit occurring right now. Those waters were warmer than in the past (plus the unusual wind direction that went literally parallel to Lake Erie instead of across)
