I hate changing a rating or a reviue but it is necessary.
Sunday River is by far one of my favorite mountains, but not this year!
My first visit this year was on new years day I drove 6 hours through a snow and ice storm. I arrived at 7:45 15 minutes before first chair. The parking lot at south ridge was not plowed at all making it difficult and dangerous to navigate. I took 2 runs and the entire mountain was put on wind hold when the wind wasn't even that strong.
My next visit was about 2 weeks later. I had planned on sleeping in the parking lot in the back seat of my truck. I was nice warm and comfy in my -30 sleeping bag. I was asleep for about 4 hours when one of Sunday Rivers employees rudely woke me up by flashing his trucks lights into my windows and hitting his horn. He then drove to the front of my truck leaned halfway out of the tuck he was driving (still in gear with his foot bearly on the brake) and began hitting the hood of my truck, leaving a dent in my hood. I asked him what his issue was he started screaming profanities telling me I can't f***ing sleep in the parking lot, and accusing me of being unprepared stating I was going to get carbon monoxide poisoning (my truck was not running and I was using a electric heater off of my inverter, I had well insulated the inside of my truck and had a -30 sleeping bag and lots of blankets), also stating I was going to catch hypothermia and frost bite. I had decided to leave to avoid more confrontation, because everyone knows when your rudely awakend your not in a good mood.
Further more they reported 100% open, the glades atop white cap were closed along with a couple of other glades.
Hopefully my next trip this season will be better, if not I'm going to have to find a new favorite mountain!
