"The premier giveaway of the day is a pair of custom, handmade Superstar-themed skis-designed by Killington's creative team and produced by Fat-ypus Skis. One random Killington app user who tracks a lap on Superstar will take them home at day's end. The first public riders on the new lift will be guests randomly selected from those who completed every Killington app achievement last winter."
"The lift replacement itself represents a $12 million investment, contributing to a larger $38 million in infrastructure upgrades completed this past summer. Additional work around the project included regrading the lift's unloading area to make it easier to exit the chair and reach the surrounding trails on Skye Peak. Resort-wide snowmaking also saw major enhancements, including the installation of 1,044 new low-energy HKD tower and fan guns over the last two seasons and a new pipeline across multiple mountain zones."
""The completion of the new Superstar lift is a testament to the backing of our independent ownership and the work of our dedicated Mountain Ops staff," Mike Solimano, President & CEO of Killington Resort & Pico Mountain, said in a press release. "We're thrilled to get this lift and terrain open ahead of schedule, and we're looking forward to continuing to invest heavily in our guest experience.""

The lift replacement cost $12 million and contributed to $38 million in recent infrastructure upgrades. Project work included regrading the unloading area, a two-story service barn for lift maintenance, a dedicated diesel generator, and extensive snowmaking upgrades including 1,044 low-energy HKD guns and new pipeline work, plus targeted improvements for Superstar trail snow production.
