Went up to Sunday River on Saturday. It ranked among the worst skiing in my 20-year history in New England. The wind was howling around 30 mph and most peak chairs were on wind hold until about 11am. <BR>Went over to Jordan Bowl via North Peak. The wind was so strong on the traverses that I was blown back uphill. In fact, the wind blew off most of the loose granular stuff so that solid blue ice was exposed. I felt very bad for any beginners. They must hate skiing/riding after that experience. <BR>Jordan Bowl was just somewhat skiiable, and I'm a pretty advanced rider. I stuck close to the sides of the trails to find whatever loose granular was left. <BR>Ended the day with 1 run on Barker Peak. It was also tolerable, but definitely not fun as I didn't feeling like sliding into trees. <BR> <BR>This was one of the rare days where I wished I got a refund. Oh well. C'est la vie!
3/13 Sunday River (awful)
