The original Knoll Ridge Cat Shed (along with three snow groomers and an excavator) was destroyed by a fire in February 2009, along with the original Knoll Ridge Chalet. The top terminal of the Waterfall Express Chair Lift was also partially damaged during the same period due to a separate fire. Unfortunately, neither the Chalet nor the Cat Shed could be reconstructed in time for the 2009 winter season and temporary facilities had to be constructed at the Knoll Ridge level.
