O Brochure links ski area with mining legacy by Bruce Lewis OF THE RECORD STAFF Park City Ski Area has re-forged a link to its roots with the publication of "A Silver Legacy and a Grand Tradition." "No other ski area in North America has its heritage so visible to its visitors," said Robbie Beck-McHugh, Marketing director for PCSA. "This is an effort to stay connected to the history of our area." The trail-ma trail-ma p - s i z e d brochure is designed to tuck into a parka pocket, pock-et, next to the area's regular trail map, to serve as a guide for site-seekers. The ski area printed 50,000 copies of the brochure. .A Silver Legacp A Grand Tradition Hi Overlayed on a simplified simpli-fied PCSA trail map, the brochure provides information and directions direc-tions for a self-guided tour of 18 locations of interest in and around the ski area, and provides a brief history histo-ry for each stop. All loca tions or viewing points can be reached via green (easiest) or blue (more difficult) runs. The brochure cautions cau-tions people taking the tour, "Enjoy looking at the mines from afar. All are out-of-bounds. ..Old mines are private property and are dangerous!" A round-robin of the tour sites on New Year's Day took a little over two hours from start to finish, not including the Jupiter Bowl leg. Plan on a longer jaunt if you make the Shadow Lake stop. Among the 18 sites on the tour are: - The John Nelson farm, which later became the ski area itself. The Nelson family gave the present site of the Silver King Hotel to the miner's union to build the old Miner's Hospital. - Three Kings Mine, located at the top of First Time lift. - Pinon Mine, discovered in 1870, at the top of the present-day Silverlode ("six pack") lift. - Mid-Mountain Lodge, formerly a boarding house and office of the Silver King Coalition Mine, moved to its pre sent site by a fleet of seven bulldozers bull-dozers in 1987. - The m s t o c k Mill remains, visible across T h a y n e s Canyon at about the midpoint. - The Silver King Coalition Mine, which can be seen from near the Gondola Angle Station. Beck-M Beck-M c H u g h hopes to use the brochure to help area school children chil-dren learn about local history. "We're told that there are about 3,400 students in the five schools nearby, near-by, and we Courtesy of Park City Ski Area have sold 2,300 student stu-dent passes," Beck-McHugh said. "There is an obvious opportunity for kids to learn about and see some of our history. We plan to approach the schools to see if they're interested in a possible linkage." The brochure was researched and written by Hal Compton, Marianne Cone, Pat Cone, Sally Elliott, Loran Larson, Nick Nass, Syd Reed, and Yvonne Stokes, with material provided by the Park City Historical Society and United Park City Mines. Beck-McHugh said Park City Ski Area is investigating the possibility of producing a summer version of the map for hikers and mountain bikers. She added that summer hiking and bike trails do not presently run to all the tour's stops. Copies of the free brochure may be obtained at the Park City Ski Area's information booth and at the area's Sports Office.
