It's in South Jersey. Very south Jersey. It's basically on the southern edge of the pine barrens and it was a functioning alpine ski area.

Looking back, it amazes me that they allowed it to be open at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To make it safer, we’d drink mass quantities of beer in the bar there prior to getting on the slide 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I first visited the camelback alpine slide when I went to camp log and twig...that dip was spicy. A few people in my group went off the track. I liked it so much for my birthday that’s where I wanted to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdBacon Posted April 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) Didn't they turn that into a trail for skiing? They did and it looks tamer than I thought it'd be. Edited April 5, 2020 by EdBacon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Montage used to have an Alpine Slide too. I used to go there as a kid. That thing was taken out many years before Camelback pulled the plug on theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
