We had a place just like that in Woodstock, CT when I was a kid growing up, learned to ski there. Only had the rope tow and it would take a minute to get to the bottom of the hill and then ski over to the rope tow. The rope tow seemed tough for some people to use, people used to fall on the way up and fall on their face when they first grabbed the rope, fun times, I think the name was Ohoho, wonder of PF was old enough to remember it.
