    Moose Mountain officially opened to an estimated crowd of 3,000 on January 31, 1961, likely with a Mueller double chairlift and T-Bar.

    A second T-Bar was added in 1968-69.

    The area likely closed in the late 1980s, perhaps as late as 1988-89.

    Starting in 2009, the area has been gradually redeveloped for snow tubing and snowmobile use.
