Name that area in 3 clues

justkeepmovingne

1. Extinct ski area sharing a name with a currently operating New England area
2. Part of the area may currently be owned by a controversial comedian’s wife
3. Its lodge and supports for its primary lift are still standing. The trails themselves are mostly overgrown, but can still be picked out both in person (barely) and on Google Earth.

Black Mountain, NH fits, although the CCC trails isn't part of the current ski resort.

Tenny Mountain also fits.

Was thinking Tenney as well, but only 1 CCC trail; OP says "trails"

If you disqualify Pleasant Mountain for having a Hall-CTEC and a Garavanta-CTEC-Stadelli; then you would also disqualify Black of NH for a Mueller-Poma and a Mueller-Riblet.

Tenney appears to have only one CCC Trail (not trails) and according to one source, it was never an Alpine Skiing Trail.

Maybe there are no correct answers!

The Sunnyside Triple and Pine Quad are both Garaventa-CTEC lifts built in 1997. The only reused the towers from the old lifts.

The platter at Black is not an aerial lift like the clue states.

I've gone through the entire list without coming up with an area that fits.
