Denis Wang, Ski Coach of Tilton School, has more information: Tilton School's lift served the school and school competitions for ski jumping for many years ending in the 70's. The school once had a fine reputation for nordic ski events. We now have only an alpine ski team.
Scott Ruggles, the Ast. Director of Athletics of the Tilton School, sent us this picture, which is courtesy of the Tilton School Archives.
