This Place in History: Vermont's Lost Ski Areas

While it's easy to pick out the ski areas that dot Vermont's mountainsides these days, you'd be surprised to learn that almost every town in Vermont had a ski area at one point. Many of these facilities have closed down and had the forests grow over the trails, but in recent years, there's been a concerted effort to try and document the story behind the lost ski areas around Vermont and the country. Local 22 / Local 44 anchor Mike Hoey and Vermont Historical Society Executive Director Steve Perkins head over to the Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum to learn about Vermont's lost ski areas.

This Place in History is produced in partnership by Local 22 & Local 44 (www.mychamplainvalley.com) and the Vermont Historical Society.
