So, why would anyone want to spend 45.5 million dollars, Belknap County money, to expand Gunstock ... www.gunstock.com .... when it's raining hard, today, Monday December 6 with more rain and warm temps predicted for opening day, next weekend, Dec 11-12?

For about seventy five dollars you can get an excellent pair of walking boots at the Skechers store in Tilton, and another $20 for "Yaktrax Pro" winter ice /snow traction walker elongated springs design at Ebay and you are good to go hit the Gunstock winter hiking trails.

$75 & $20 for winter walking vs 45.5-million for ski area expansion? That's a big difference? .....

Shopping the local thrift store or Walmart, winter walking boots/shoes can be, maybe, a great value! .....

Downhill skiing is a conspiracy to get you to spend a lot of money, when you actually would get much more recreational benefit by walking up and down a NH mountain hiking trail in the winter. ..... ...... and maybe bring along a pair of ski poles from the thrift store for steep walking.
