History

The ski area originally opened in 1962 as King's Arrow. It operated irregularly for three decades, mostly as Arrowhead Skiway. Terrain for all abilities was available, served by two Poma surface lifts.

The ski area sat dormant for much of the 1990s, before reopening in 2004. The area currently offers platter-pull-serviced alpine skiing and tubing and has terrain lit for night operations While the area once sported a 600-ft vertical drop, only 120-ft are currently lift-serviced.[1]

gollark: That's loosely defined.
gollark: Did the situation with the end island get worked out?
gollark: Perhaps a giant claimwall around Switchcity?
gollark: Idea: place claims in places which people may one day use then sell them at exorbiant prices if they try to.
