Shu Maker Little Falls, NY

Alschnier
Does anyone have any current info on this closed hill, just south of the thruway near exit 29? I've been tempted to skin it & take a few laps, but thought I'd see if anyone had any firsthand knowledge.

Here is an old thread from Snowjournal about Shu Maker.

I checked on the NYLSAP page and couldn't find anything. Jeremy?

Thx for the snow journal link.  I found this yesterday.  I think this may be the place...

I sent them an email, asking if it would be OK to skin up & ski down.  I'll report back if they respond.  

Lake effect may be decent this week, but won't likely add up here (one can hope).

Hi,

While I don't know the property status now, I can share some images from 1994-1995:

As I always say for exploring lost areas...check trespassing issues first...and obey all signs, or seek permission.

Yeah, don't be intentionally obtuse, like certain people!
