Crews are racing to complete multiple terrain and snowmaking projects at Gunstock this fall.
Upper Ramrod has been extended by about 100 yards, providing a new low-angle exit onto Middle Trigger. Snowmaking pipe is on-site, but not yet installed.
Below Trigger Link, the Derringer to Upper Smith crossover has been widened in a few sections, with blasting in progress.
In addition to Upper Ramrod, snowmaking is also being installed on Hot Shot, increasing Gunstock's upper mountain snowmaking trail count by 50%. Pipe is now in place, with hydrants and tower mounts awaiting installation. Though the trail has been slightly widened and regraded in a few sections, it retains much of its classic New England twists, turns, and double fall-lines.
