Description: Up for auction is an original, "Bear Mountain", ski pin. Bear Mountain was started in, the 1950's as the "Moonridge Ski Area." In 1955 snowmaking was tried on a 300 ft. run, but was not successful. The ski area was purchased by two former Snow Summit ski instructors, Bill Strickland and Fred Goldsmith, in the late 1960's and renamed "Goldmine." A mile-long lift was installed in 1969. Having no snow was always a problem, and Goldmine went into receivership in 1972. It was recovered by Joe Shuff, and snowmakers and three lifts were installed. In 1988 it was purchased by a publicly traded ski company and renamed "Bear Mountain". If you have any questions, please ask!
