Reply to comment by Fantastic_Painter_15 in Advice Post - 4WD car necessary for weekend skiing trip or nay? by 3-celled-noggin

Yeah there’s a $2 bus that’s right across the street. “the Bus” I believe.

Anyone know if Skis/gear are allowed on those?

Free! Thank you COVID relief

Yes “The Bus” definitely allows skiing equipment. Sometimes it’s pretty busy in mornings, but peak times they will have two running.

The bus is free to Killington. And yes, ski gear is allowed — but it can get a little packed on a few of the busses. Definitely the best way up the hill on a busy weekend, parking can be a nightmare.

Like others said, you don’t need a 4WD SUV and most rentals will be on shitty tires. I commute up the mountain in a Prius on snow tires without issue. The pass can get a little icy and the top of the access road gets a bit snowy, but the route is generally clear within a day of a heavy storm.
