The resort will also add 60 acres of gladed terrain, spread out over five trails.

Press Release, Newry, ME, August 22, 2013:

For those skiers and snowboards who like to venture off trail and into the woods, drop into a superpipe, hit some rails or even jumps, Sunday River Resort is excited to announce the addition of T72, a 15-acre terrain park trail, and five new gladed areas for the 2013/14 winter season.

This new terrain adds up to 75 acres for a total of 820 acres of skiable terrain at the resort. These additions make Sunday River the second largest resort in New England behind sister resort, Sugarloaf (1,056 acres), also located in Maine.
