Fire dancer makes mountain hot spot

Jan 11: Slopeside Fire Dancer, Sunday River, Maine — There is so much snow, it’s time to melt some of it. Really? No, not really, but you can see one of two free shows (7:45 and 8:15 p.m.) with a fire dancer who works with hoops, wands, torches and more. The fire pit will be blazing for s’mores, and fireworks will follow the second show.
