Due to demand and the fact that I now live in New York, we at NELSAP have decided to introduce lost New York areas to the site. New York is a huge undertaking in itself--we estimate that there are approximately 350 lost areas in New York alone! That said, we will continue to focus on New England for the time being-we have an enormous amount of information to still add. We will add New York areas sporadically-we expect to do one or two a month. Once we feel New England is completed to the best of knowledge, we will shift focus not only onto to NY, but to areas in other states as well. If you have any information on lost areas in NY that you would like to share with us, email me. If you have information on any other lost ski area outside the Northeast or Canada, email Betsy. We will keep that info on file for future updates. 

The list below is but a few of what we will eventually add to NELSAP. Future indicates future feature on NELSAP.
