Singing junk and a rebel in Stratton Mountain
Malvine Cole, sculptor and activist known as “mother of Stratton Mountain,” fights Stratton Corporation over riparian rights since 1961. She created Styles Brook Committee of Jamaica and helped block full diversion for a reservoir while pushing ongoing sewage treatment innovations and ozonation. Cole, amid public battles, chairs Residents’ North Branch group and remains a pivotal voice in Stratton’s ski resort history.
