The History of Moose Mountain

Moose Mountain is a former ski area that is located about 10 miles south of the Mt. Whittier ski area, and 20 miles north of Rochester on route 11A. It was a small family-oriented ski area, with a real vertical of 630′. It was often advertised though as having more vertical, and in some publications was listed at 1000′. A variety of trails and slopes served skiers of all abilities. A Mueller Double Chair was the summit lift, flanked by two T-bars. The exact opening year is unknown, but it was prior to 1964, and it appeared to have closed in the late 1980’s.

The area lay dormant until 2009 when a new company, Moose Mountain Recreation reactivated the area for snow tubing. Some slopes and trails were cleared out, and other activities such as hiking and snowmobiling are now available. The tubing park has snowmaking and a handle tow, and the lodge has been completely renovated.

Located east of Copple Crown Mountain in the southeast corner of the Lakes Region, Moose Mountain operated as a ski area for nearly three decades. Two decades after closing, the area began a gradual reemergence as a recreational facility.

Early Years

Moose Mountain officially opened to an estimated crowd of 3,000 on December 31, 1961, likely served by a Mueller double chairlift and T-Bar. Popular trails that season included the expert lift line run named Whizbang and the novice Big Moose.

Tom Mahoney took over as general manager for Moose’s sophomore season, which ended up 23% ahead of its debut season performance. Despite this, Moose soon found itself in financial trouble.

New Ownership

Paul Cossette took over Moose Mountain in 1964-65, providing financing and overseeing improvements to the base lodge, parking area, and adding a beginner rope tow. Copple Crown ski area opened on the opposite side of the ridge in 1965-66, initially enjoying some regional attention. The area eventually fizzled without reaching its full potential.

A second T-Bar was installed at Moose Mountain in 1968-69, serving the Jer-Cee novice slope. The ski area may have been briefly named Limberlost Club circa 1970. The name was quickly restored to Moose Mountain.

Snowmaking may have been briefly in use during the 1970s. The main lodge burned down in late March of 1976 and was subsequently rebuilt.
