I do recall an attempt to revitalize the area. For a brief time, I think a gondola operated from the parking & base across Route 16 to the base of the former ski area in summer for riding the water slide affair.
I also recall they had a "car" you could ride down the hill on. The "cars" were mounted like a monorail but with the rail under the "car". There were also wheeled grass skis you could rent. This was back in the late 70's IIRC.

And across from the base station on Rt16 there was a go-cart track and cheesy mini-golf course, not associated with the ski/gondola operation.
