The organization that has maintained Big Moose Mountain in Greenville since 2012 has pledged to use $200,000 to improve the ski area. In November 2022, developers working to revitalize the partially defunct ski resort in Piscataquis County halted their $126.3 million plans after failing to come to terms with Confalone. The majority of these funds will be used toward a complete overhaul of our only operating chairlift. The group will use $40,000 to reclaim trails on the upper mountain, which will broaden public access to the summit for both uphill and downhill travel. The parking area also will be improved, which is slated to cost $35,000. The group plans to use $15,000 on snowmaking pump upgrades and $5,000 on lodge maintenance and repairs.
