Little Ski Hill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Little Ski Hill is a modest ski area in west central Idaho, two miles west of McCall. It has a summit elevation of 5600 feet (1706 m) above sea level. The slopes face north and west.
Built in 1937 as a winter diversion for local forest workers, the Little Ski Hill has served the region's youth and skiing community for nearly 70 years. The small but action-packed facility has an alpine hill served by a T-bar surface lift, providing 405 vertical feet (123 m) of terrain on the only lighted ski area in the vicinity. There are also 30 kilometers (18.6 miles) of groomed cross-country ski trails and a biathlon range. Ski legend and 50-year McCall resident Corey Engen taught at the hill for years before developing the nearby Brundage Mountain in 1961.
