It's not all about vertical drop. I always thought of Gunstock as my "home" area, but I liked some of the others for amenities. Loon had none, but Waterville and Bretton Woods had summit or slope-side dining among other things. It wasn't all about vertical. Gunstock has long had great grooming (esp. noon groom) as well as shorter drive times from southern bases.

Gary Kadaiesch (sp?) and family have a long history of developing and supporting the ski industry. He's the perfect one to lead this effort.
