The Plattsburgh thing was an award based on a competition while this I think is just something he is adding to the budget.  Seems like way too much to spend on this site.

Sometime next summer, I'm going to mountain bike around that area to explore it before it goes away.

Although a new mountain bike trail network there with a bunch of wooden features around the old buildings might be pretty cool, too.

If they're spending that much money, might as well do some cool shit.

Sno should write him a letter and tell him to not spend it there but to spend it on more snow making so WF can get the Wilmington trail open before Xmas... Just say'in.

That would work PT !

Cuomo must be smoking the dank stuff, executive herb or maybe some Snoop Dog.

My grandparents took me to Frontier Town, but not Jellystone Park, right up the road.  Back in the day, my aunt was an actress in either Frontier Town or another western theme park up there where they staged fake shootouts.

It could have been Storytown too. They used to do them there, at least in the pre-six flags/great escape era

Right Bski. They did them up to the early 2000's until the Sheriff (Bill Mckray?) crossed over to that big round-up in the sky.

https://www.newyorkupstate.com/adirondacks/2019/09/state-spends-millions-on-frontier-town-but-horse-riders-dont-like-it.html

Go figure the Gov’s signature ADK project spends almost $2 million on design and $20 million total and they build something totally wrong for horses which was the intent

What moron designed a staircase and expected horses to use it?
Where is the horse gondola?


Based on this you can expect a stairway for XC skiers at VanHo?
