Plans for ambitious ski redevelopment project near Moosehead Lake are on hold

Multi-million dollar plans to rebuild and revitalize the ski area on Big Moose Mountain near Greenville are on hold indefinitely, as the project's developers say they no longer have a clear path for acquiring the site. The plans from Big Lake Development had called for a new hotel, base lodge and ski-lift, with the goal of restoring the mountain as a year-round resort. But efforts to buy the mountain have fallen through, developer Perry Williams said Wednesday. The sale of the property has proven to be a major sticking point.
