Highmount Ski Center was built by two brothers. In 1939, Francis and Maurice Davenport acquired 110 acres in Highmount, NY. They cleared 5 trails and added 3 rope tows. The work was completed in the fall of 1946 and the ski area opened in January of 1947 after the first snow. Highmount operated until 1993.
