To be honest I think winter up north is easier to deal with then back down in tax land. In NH people know how to plow and drive in the snow - unlike the aforementioned place.

There is cable up the hill but I don't know if it is run onto High Point Drive yet or how far it goes over the hill into the Hills Pond/Sunset Lake areas.

The plows go up Rand Hill Road from Rte 11 at Busy Corner, and turn left on Alton Mt. Road. I live further west on Rand Hill, and can drive in 4-6 inches of snow until I get to Alton Mt Rd. Road is well sanded and is part of one of the major school bus routes. Higher priority road for plowing. Icy
weather, sanded well. Sometimes I'm jealous.
