I am going with a group of 7 or more people to North Conway in a couple weeks and we are trying to decide which mountains to go to. The tentative plan had been

Friday: Bretton Woods
Saturday: Cranmore
Sunday: Wildcat (hoping to hit the 12-4pm for $20 deal)

Talking to guy at work today he said to scratch Bretton Woods and replace it with Cannon or Attitash. His reasoning being that Bretton Woods is largely flat and more or an 'senior' crowd.

After hearing that I'm not sure what to do. We are a mixed bag skill level, the majority of us are very proficient skiers and/or snowboarders but it will be at least 2 of our groups first time out in several years. I think I speak for the group in saying we are looking for some challenging terrain, but don't care much glades or bumps

What would your top 3 mountains be within 20-30 minutes of North Conway?
