Historic Marker














A plaque has been erected by the Shandaken Historical Society at the base of the old Simpson Ski Slope located at the beginning of Woodland Valley Road. The property, now owned by Harry Jameson, was the first ski area in the state of NY. Trains would come from Kingston and stop right on WV road across from the slope to allow passengers to disembark and hit the slopes. Check it out.
