Damn wish I knew you were going. Stay away on vacation weeks holidays , learn the NH Maine school vacations, ski mid week . Use Barker Lodge parking as your base after you get tickets, take second left off the access road after the Grand summit road or right if you get your tickets at South Ridge ( sign says Brookside Condos keep following road to Barker Lodge) Stay away from Barker Chair from 10 to 2. Go all the way skiers right ( left going up chairlifts) in the morning. Ski White Heat chair runs then work your way to Tempest chair, ski that area, then go left down Cascades to Barker chair and ski left until you hit Grand Rapids to North Peak chair. That area is a blast, take Paradigm off North Peak to the Aurora chair, couple nice runs there. Then take lefts to Jordan bowl runs then ski back to Barker by Kansas run. Hit Barker and Spruce chairs for the afternoon. Believe me its a helluva lot better when you know the mountain. Covid year with lots of WFH people kids out of school. Obviously zoom school is the worst invention ever for mid week skiers lol. Give it another shot on a Tuesday . DM me anytime, I skied there for 30 plus years and can answer any questions you have.
