I stumbled across this today on a virtual hall of fame site about the creator of Grampian (among others). Thanks to George Black for the great materials to scan. Grampian, undated (do you think it’s still good?). He says they are from the reopening of the area in 1987.Īn actual lift ticket from Mt. George Black forwarded the following lift ticket, brochure and direct mail flyer by US mail so I could scan them for you. Grampian installed a 685′ Sneller double chair with a 110′ rise.Īlan O’Connor submitted the following picture of a patch he purchased on ebay and a satellite map pic of the area today. 10, 1961, the same paper listed the area as having 2 to 3″ fresh powder on top of a 8 to 15″ base for good skiing. Grampian with 2″ new snow over a 4″ base and fair to good skiing. 24, 1959, The Luddington Daily News ski report listed Mt. In 1959, Sports Illustrated noted: A $15,000 1000′ Pomalift with a 100′ rise was installed. See the “About MILSAP” page for directions. If you have any information about skiing at this area, please submit it. One comment posted below mentions a book reference to its being constructed in 1957. One reference mentions a double chairlift and several surface lifts.
