St. Lawrence University Snow Bowl

Class of '07. I think it was sold off in '06, at or around the same time they sold off Catamount Lodge. :cautious:

My first year at SLU was in 1985 and the ski bowl was not operational at that time. I know in the early 2000s, the SLU ski coach looked in to reviving it for training purposes and the idea was shot down.
 
Never skied the SLU campus but saw Little Feat live on their golf course if that counts.
Skied the bowl way back mid 70s and Seven Springs. The bowl had much steeper terrain, short but fun. T-bar was a fun ride too. Run out on the jump was probably the steepest section. Never saw any Concerts at SLU but saw The Byrds and Loggins and Messina at Canton ATC and Blue Oyster Cult in the Clarkson Hockey arena. One or 2 guys from BOC went to Clarkson actually.
 
Yup. I remember folks living in off campus apartments at Potsdam were friends/relatives of Bouchard bros.

The Big Tupper thread is such a bummer, I figured I would torpedo this one too. SLU SnoBowl is now owned by a shadowy outfit called Trout LLC (if memory serves). This appears to be 4 hot shot Wall Street lawyers who want their own private trout stream. While the property remains un-posted (for now) the public are not encouraged to use it. In fact, even parking there can get you in trouble. Word to the wise--they evidently have eyes on the ground of some kind. Sigh, there goes another winter goal of mine. In 1989 I tried to fly a hang glider off this hill, didn't end well. The wife used to get big laughs at parties, recounting the story...

That LLC is interesting. The LLC is registered to a house in Port Jervis. The property taxes on the Port Jervis property are being paid by the LLC which has a registered address in Middletown. Not really sure about the wall street lawyer part.

Edit: the tax rolls indicate the LLC with another individual located at 48 Wall Street. The 48 Wall Street entity appears to be a fund of some sort.

As you sat on your couch, or made that turkey soup, that vague feeling of FOMO? It was real...great day out there today. Like that self-basting bird in the fridge--this storm was self-basing--I didn't touch bottom all day, except for a few little rocks on the skin track. Felt like winter too. I declare January. Get some.
