Here's a ski magazine article on Ski-93, New Hampshire from 2015..... http://www.powder.com/latitudes/ski-...e-free-or-ski/ ..... and guess what ..... the Gunstock Ski Area is NOT even mentioned. For Gunstock to appear in a ski magazine named 'Powder.com' ...... that magazine name should be changed to 'Wet Slush.com' to be honest ....  |
Ragged is also not mentioned. Gunstock and Ragged are mid-sized areas located south of the White Mountain and will never offer 2,000+ vertical feet like Cannon/Loon/Waterville.

Exit 21 would probably be known as the exit to get to Gunstock Ski Area.
www.wikipedia.org/wiki/interstate_93 ..... with 44 exits on NH-Route 93, the never built Exit 21 is the only ghost exit that never happened.
Exit 21 ...... never made it ...... for some unknown reason? ...... which does not help Gunstock, too much? So, looking at the list of exits in the Route 93-New Hampshire list in Wikipedia, just take a good look at that Exit 21 that easily takes you to Gunstock. ..... what exit? ..... where is Exit-21? .....  |
Interesting thought. Similarly, exit 19 not being a full on/off certainly didn't help the former Highlands ski area.
