This episode the Killington Download podcast sits down with Steve Reynolds, snowmaking control room supervisor for the resort. We chat with Steve about his first job at Killington making snow and his transition into the control room. We learn exactly what happens in the control room, that there is 90 miles of pipe that covers Killington and Pico and the most challenging part of his job is the weather. Then we get one little nugget from Steve that this season, with the right weather, we should see snowmaking on Devils Fiddle for the first time in 7 years.
Then we welcome President and General Manager Mike Solimano back. Mike speaks about what it's like to manage the Beast fo the East and the energy around the resort as we get into winter. Lastly, we chat with Mike about his take on what he would do to improve the resort if he had a blank check and his best guess to when the resort might open for the season.
