After being shut down for about five years, new life is coming to Toggenburg Mountain.
Attorney General Letitia James says Intermountain Management has sold Toggenburg Mountain to a new owner.
In 2022, James’ office sued Intermountain, claiming it bought the site only to shut it down and force skiers to go to two other resorts they owned.
“Competition among Syracuse ski areas means more choices and better prices and services for New York skiers,” James said in a statement. “We’re putting an end to Intermountain’s illegal monopoly that allowed it to raise prices and take advantage of skiers.”
A judge ruled in 2025 that Intermountain violated state antitrust laws.
The new ownership, led by local businessman Douglas Wheeler, plans to rebuild Toggenburg and reopen the site for the 2027-28 skiing season.
“Our family has lived in and called Fabius home for generations and prior to 1953, owned the very property Toggenburg sits on. [Seventy-three] years later, that land has returned to our [family’s] hands,” the Wheeler family said in a statement. “Our intention for Toggenburg is and has always been the same. To acquire Toggenburg Ski Center and return it to its former glory while modernizing the technology and adding new attractions.”
