Resolution is limited, but that white bump just to the right of center seems to be Mt Shaw, in the Ossipees, and the white peaks in the left third of the picture likely are in the Paugus range. From the top of Gunstock, the very tip of Chocorua can be seen poking up above the ridge heading south from Mt Roberts, at the north end of the Ossipees. After skiing down a short distance, that bit of Chocorua disappears behind the ridge, so it wouldn't be seen from down on rte 11.
[edit Feb 7] The Gunstock top webcam view (
https://www.gunstock.com/discover/webcams/) shows how the tip of Chocorua peeks up above the ridge to the right (south) of Mt Roberts. Of course, on a day like today, with great visibility, the snowy cone of Mt Washington appears further off, to the left of Mt Roberts in that shot.
