Big Fan of King Ridge as a kid as well. Not sure if it could still make it today with such limited vert and challenge. There's only so many skiers to go around for the smaller hills. Same goes for Temple

Not to mention, Temple did not have a reliable water supply.Hard to say. Glad they chose Crotched due to the bigger vert and more consistent pitch.
The King Ridge lodge was converted into a home and was recently (and maybe still is) for sale.
Yup the whole hill side is developed. Nice homes!That brings back some memories. I was scrolling around google maps yesterday in the area and it seems they have done a fair amount of developing in the area. Looks like you could drive right to the base of the old triple to drop a car and make some runs there. I think I'm gonna have to do some exploring at some point. We skied there every weekend for about 5 years as kids.
