❌Sunday River is now closed for the season
It's the final day of the season to get your laps in on the K-1 Gondola and North Ridge Quad! Even though we are saying farewell to our favorite runs from the peak, the Superstar Express remains open 7 days this week. #Beast365 #Killington
Less than 72 hours left to snag your 2024/25 Season Pass at the best rate, plus score SIX Buddy Passes with no blackout dates. Prices go up May 1st, so secure yours now! Go to bit.ly/4b0XmCg to purchase your season pass today. #tenney #10e #tenneymountain
The last Saturday of 2023-24 did not disappoint. We'll see you back here tomorrow for our FREE and FINAL ski day of the season.
Superstar is dressed from top to bottom in beautiful corduroy this morning. Temps are on the rise, so Preston's Pitch should have a whole different feel to it this afternoon. Leave a comment below on what you like best, spring cord or bumps? #Beast365 #Killington #SpringSkiing
Park your plans where culture and cuisine collide, and there's always extra flavor. Tomorrow we tailgate. • All-day: Stateside • Cook-off judging 2-3p • DJ Ras 1: 12-4p outside • Cook-off winners: 4p, Bullwheel • Après: 4-7p, live music: WD-40s jaypeakresort.com/tailgate
Alright, gang, the end is in sight. A couple of things for this weekend - Ungroomed terrain will start the day closed, but will open as it warms up - Sunday is free to ski, but you still need a lift ticket to get through the RFID gates. Tickets can be purchased online for $0
The @MichelobULTRA deck is the place to be this time of year for the ultimate spring vibes. Join us at the base of the Superstar trail on Saturdays for Decked Out Days. This Saturday, Nick Bredice and Dan Brown will be performing and bringing the party from 2:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.
A smooth morning on the slopes
It's time to break out the one piece suit and/or the straight skis, these next few days look like a dream. Come harvest some sweet corn up at #theloaf this weekend, you won't regret it
Our lift mechanics already prepping for 24/25 (now that we’ve added to their summer maintenance list with the Quad!) Early bird gets the worm…
Fun in the sun☀️ #Killington #Beast365
