Dan's Lost Ski Area Explorations

**June 2010**
Trails: Mostly grown in, but some lines still discernible through the growth.
Lifts: Some sort of abandoned surface lift still stands somewhat. All towers still stand along the line, some missing crossarms and/or sheave trains. The top return bullwheel counterweight support still stands, but the bullwheel itself lies on the ground.
Facilities: What looks to have been a small lodge still stands at the bottom and looks like it's been renovated and now serves as some sort of outdoor adventure center?
Accessibility: I actually found this place COMPLETELY randomly while doing layout GPS work on the Forest Service land just above the lift. A mountain biking trail runs through the old ski area farther down the liftline, but lots of NO TRESPASSING signs nearer the bottom of the lift closer to where that outdoor/adventure school place was. Unsure if it's owned by the high school or someone else. This one DEFINITELY needs to be investigated further.
