Sunday River 3/6-3/8
Had Friday off, ditched family and left early AM from MA and was on chair at 11:00. No rush, let it warm up. Beautiful perfect bluebird day.
It had snowed maybe 3-4 inches earlier in week and weekday pow hounds left lots around in the glades to play in. Celestial was untouched on left, 3 days later. Wow…can’t wait to retire lol! Haven’t spent much time in Jordan this winter – so hit Blinds Ambition. Very nice, seems a little skied off under the pow but there was plenty for me. Caramba was trail of day – perfect bumps. I spent some time skiing Locke line trails – nice when lift isn’t running. What else…oh a lower chutzpah, very nice.
Saturday and Sunday was with husband. More glades – SuperNova was our fave this weeeknd. Basically, in most glades beautiful packed bumps with a rare obstacle every now and then. Very little ice. Avoided OZ trails, looked hellish from Jordan lift and Sunday LP and Emerald city were closed- looked treacherous. Everyone raves about Top Gun (kids included) – Took it SUnday – just another steep icy groomer where I try to scrub speed whole time lol.
Downdraft – maybe best bump trail of weekend – pure powder bumps til bottom ice slick. We’re loving Gnarnia and Yetiville (hint-stay way way skiers left for beautiful untouched).
Groomers? Have no idea, sorry lol. Although I let my SL skis run on lower part of black hole – very fun. I don’t do that if I fear ice – so this was a treat. Did seem to be typical skied off by noon on most groomers from what I could see (and hear)
so yeah – fucking fabulous at SR right now! Would be nice to have a cover but fine if nothing falls from sky.
