Killington to open again; and 10 scary ski trails

Posted Thursday, November 12, 2009
— Fall & early season, Killington, Stowe, Smugglers' Notch, Mad River Glen

An interesting top-10 list was released recently: the World's Scariest Ski Slopes. Vermont actually made the list three times with Goat at Stowe; Black Hole at Smugglers' Notch; and Paradise at Mad River Glen.

I've skied two out of the three. How 'bout you?

Here's a link to the <link http: www.travelandleisure.com articles worlds-scariest-ski-slopes external-link-new-window vermont ski>list with pictures and video.
