Killington Peak is the second highest summit in the Green Mountains and in the U.S. state of Vermont. It is located east of Rutland in south-central Vermont. A ski resort, Killington Ski Resort, nicknamed "the beast of the east, is located on the mountain. Killington is a stop on the Long Trail, which here shares its route with the Appalachian Trail. Traveling southbound on the Trail, it is the last peak until Virginia. A gondola transports skiers and non-hikers to the summit, which is complete with a restaurant. In 1763, the mountain was known as Pisgah.〔A name given later to a mountain in another part of the state〕 Lodging situations have changed over the years from sleeping on barroom floors and barns on the mountain road, traveling up from nearby Rutland or Woodstock, to now over 120 inns, lodges and condominium complexes, with sleeping capacity to bring the Rutland region's tourist population to 60,000 on a winter weekend. ==Gallery== file:View from the peak of Mount Killington 1.JPG |View from the peak of Mount Killington, as seen after hiking up beyond Catwalk file:View from Mount Killington with skis, near where the K1 gondola disembarks.JPG |View from Mount Killington with skis, between the K1 gondola and the Peak Lodge file:View from the peak of Mount Killington 2.JPG |View from the peak of Mount Killington, as seen after hiking up beyond Catwalk file:View of the top of the Great Northern run at Mount Killington.JPG |The very top of Great Northern, with skiers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Killington Peak」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
