Gunstock Ski Area- Guilford, NH
Gunstock Ski Area, located in Guilford, NH offers a great
variety of terrain whether you are a beginner or expert skier. The mountain is
located less than 2 hours from Boston making it easy for a day trip.
We were pleasantly surprised at how fast the lift lines moved. We rarely waited longer than 5 minutes, despite it being a beautiful Saturday.
The mountain has a total of 55 different trails including some glade runs. Gunstock sits 2,200 feet above sea level and averages 120 inches of snow a year. The Hotshot trail was an enjoyable expert level trail offering challenging, steep and winding dips. For an easier option you can take the Upper Gunsmoke to Gunpowder route which is easy-going and fun trail. The best part about the Gunstock's summit is the panoramic views of Lake Winnipesauke. And if days aren’t convenient for you, Gunstock is one of only a handful of mountains in New Hampshire that offer night skiing as well.
