Can't be Prospect. Prospect had 2-Tbars, a rope and a mighty-might (handle tow).

You are on the right track with clue #3 but it is not I93.
To make things a little easier for others, here's a few old exit 24s off interstates:

I91 - Rocky Hill, CT
I91 - Whately, MA
I91 - Lyndon, VT
I95 - Wayland/Newton, MA
*I95 had no exit 24 in NH, ME or NY
*I84 had no exit 24 in any of its NEL/NYLSAP area
I290 - Northboro, MA
MA-2 - Westminster, MA

Not a comprehensive list, but might help someone else!

Was thinking Lyndon, but I think the t-bar is still standing

Boxboro Hill?

No correct answers yet. The highway I am referring to is not listed above but one listed highway intersects the one from my clue. Also one of the towns named above borders the city/town of the ski area in question.

Cat Rock? IDK if it had a T-Bar

2 rope tows, no t-bar unfortunately. Seems like a cool place, though!

I'll add another clue in the morning if nobody gets it or gets closer.

@justkeepmovingne That is not true, old exit 24 off of I95 in Maine was in Topsham and is now exit 31 on I295.

It has to be Jericho Hill in Marlborough, Mass off of what used to be Exit 24 on I495.

Nice work Sam, you're up. Jericho is where I first learned to ski and spent most of my winter Friday nights before it closed.

My morning clue was going to be: Did Frye make ski boots? Alluding to Marlborough's rich history of shoe making and the original home of the Frye Boot Company.

Was going to guess Jericho but lift still standing?

I can't possibly remember which ski areas I've already given clues for, but hopefully this is a new one:

1. This ski area was closed for multiple seasons before reopening.
2. The lift served portion of this ski area is 100% covered by snowmaking and is 100% lit for night skiing.
3. This ski area has a designated "backcountry" zone for alpine touring which is marked on the trail map found on their website.

Not a lot of areas offer 100% night skiing or 100% snowmaking! Must be small otherwise this would be too obvious, no?

Not sure if it ever closed, but I’ll take a guess and say Lost Valley?

Lost Valley fits clue number 2, but not clue 1 or 3.

Arrowhead?

No, but good guess. Arrowhead is why I included such a specific third clue. I'm not sure if the current handle tow was there prior to it closing, but their new website doesn't have a trail map on it at all.
