Windham Conditions

[Brownski]

Put me in the Windham doesn’t deserve the contempt camp. It even has a few somewhat steep trails. They’re just short above a long blue runout. You can have fun there. And yeah, more people have discovered Plattekill. A couple times last year I was on line for like four minutes, maybe even five

No hate from me. I skied there two or three times, some fun father daughter stuff with @x10003q and his.

This is my recollection. Personally I want Laz to make bank up to the point where Plattekill remains Plattekill.

When was Windham private?

It opened in 1960 and I believe it went up to the late 60s as private. Can anyone confirm? Originally known as Cave Mountain. Bummer that the micro-brewery there closed a while back -- loved going there after skiing.

When was Windham private?

I believe it was initially private for a very short time after it opened in 1960, and then reverted to private from 1968 until 1981 when it was purchased by Snow Time (which also owned Roundtop and Liberty in PA).

WINDHAM, N. Y., Feb. 8 1969 -- Men's clubs may be dying or doomed to coeducation. Golf clubs and country clubs may be stigmatized as squarely suburban.
