Anyone from NH here? I have a question about the Mountain Zephyr. It was a downhill mountain ride that they had at Mt. Whittier in Ossippee.
Any idea who made it, or was it a one-off type of thing? I guess someone has finally bought up the place, and is starting sking and some summer stuff there again. But I have not been up there for a few years.
I heard lots of rumors that it was unsafe and that was part of the reason the place failed, but I don't have a lot of faith in that rumor.
I am interested in mountain rides - I know that there are two firms that make alpine slides from Germany, and there is some company that makes these downhill carts, but I am looking for something unique.
Oh, for those new englanders, too... At Attitash, sometime in the sixties I believe - they started to put in this tiny monorail to service the parking area. Any idea what happened with that?
