Just a couple of listings on this one, it
had a T-bar, slope, and trail. The name changed from Northmen to
Caribou Ski Slope around 1970. They offered free skiing to local
children which was a terrific idea!
Here's the Terraserver image of this ski area. It clearly shows the main slope, and a narrower trail on the left. Notice how bushes have grown in up and around the top of the main slope. It also appears that there are now base buildings remaining. |
