Mount Tom, the long shut down Western Massachusettes ski area saw some action for the first time in a long time in the form of a fire that burned through the old main ski lodge.
It was this past Sunday evening, February 23rd, that firefighters from the city of Holyoke responded to the fire at Mount Tom. The fire was called into 911 around 6:40 P.M. by hikers that happened to be in the area. This is according to a report from WWLP via Holyoke Fire Lieutenant Michael Boucher.
