In the Adirondacks | Wilmington and Jay, NY | $7,950,000 
In the good old days, the Adirondacks were home to dozens of great ski areas that thrived throughout this magnificent park. One of the most popular was Paleface Mountain which is featured in a recently published book Lost Ski Areas of the Northern Adirondacks. Paleface Mountain was bought as a family compound years ago. The family closed the ski area and meticulously renovated the lodge into a living compound with lodging, exercise, commercial kitchen, and office facilities while building a 10,000-square-foot home on top of Bassett Mountain and improving the 1000 acres of land with trails and outposts.
