this question would probly be better to ask some real estate people, but anyway....does anybody know what an average sized (small) ny/nj/pa mountain (undeveloped) would cost? or has a ski area in the poconos or ny region been sold recently? and for how much?

peace and not killing people

Well what region are you looking to purchase in? The area is going to greatly affect the prices.

Thats honestly not bad, my hill has 14 runs and it is only like 250 vertical and its most likely worth a lot more than 300 000. Thats a good price

then we could make it only for newschoolers and make the entire mountain a terrain park. Like one trail would be entirely devoted to an 80ft just because the hill is that big, then one trail for like rails and some smaller jumps and the other trail for the pipe. SICKNESS

I thought i heard a couple years ago that powder mountain in utah was being sold for 4 or 5 million. That's pretty rediculous just considering how big it is.

Well the difference between that and an east coast resort is the one in Utah comes with snow included.
