Northeast trails I HATE

[Northeastskier293]

While the Northeast has lots of great trails, there are some that I can't stand. These are:

EXCELSIOR, WHITEFACE (First time I did it, my favorite. Second time it was all crowded and icy, especially at the top. It is now my least favorite ski trail ever)

RIME, KILLINGTON (Icy, crowded hell)

OLD MAN, BRETTON WOODS (This is a bizzare trail, too narrow to turn but very crowded at the same time. I hate this one)

LOOSE SPRUCE, OKEMO (Worst glade ever. It is gladed+crowded. This is an awful combination. I strongly do not reccomend this trail as you actually have to wait in line to go around trees almost)

RIME, KILLINGTON (Icy, crowded hell)

I guess it ain't called Rime for nothing, with that name it would have to be icy.

that really long cross country green trail at stratton by the sunbowl i think its called 91. really anoying because its the only trail at mid mountain that will take you back to the bottom of sunbowl if you wind up in that area.

any trail that follows the fall line that has traverses on it. friggin slow signs suck. got a talking to by a troller at snow but he was nice enough. we agreed i was in control but if i had to stop short wasn't going going to happen at 40+ by the way long john is a way to fun green if you do it at top speed that one lip on the left is o so floaty.

Only one trail I can think of, that I hate at all times and under all conditions. Horizon at Mountain Creek. It crosses all of the intermediate/expert trails, causing a deathtrap and ruining what would otherwise be nice runs.

Kansas traverse to exit Jordan Bowl at Sunday River.

At Attitash the Bearback Trail when the Abenaki Quad isn't running, that is a long skate!

Juggernaught, Killington. A trail you will only ever take once.

It's actually not bad on a mountain bike or hiking. On skis? Awful. On a snowboard? Fagetaboutit!

Snowshed crossover, Killington ....

Careful with your hate on that. Traverse, it is, as is pretty obvious by the name and the way it's marked. However, it is a damn useful trail, especially on any windy day, very early/late season, or any other time the Needle's/Bear lifts are closed. If the K-1 is running, you can ski everything on Skye down to the GE/Snowshed Crossover crossing thanks to it. It's made a few powder days incredible...wind hold on everything on Skye/Bear...take the K-1>Launchpad>ski across until you find something that looks nice.

I agree..I it stinks when they make fast trails slow skiing runs..I use slow signs as GS gates..
