Buffalo Valley Ski Area Long Sleeve T-Shirt

Buffalo Valley Ski Area in Buffalo, Minnesota, opened in 1966 on the west side of Buffalo Lake, 35 miles west of Minneapolis. Its builders ran air compressors that sandblasted in summer and made snow in winter, and the lodge was a converted barn whose silo housed the ski patrol.

Rope tows served about 240 feet of vertical, with night skiing until 10. Ads promised no chairlifts, no T-bars and no waiting in line. The short runs drew mostly local skiers, and the area closed for financial reasons in 1972.

About the design: Redrawn from Buffalo Valley's own mascot in its 1969 and 1972 newspaper ads. The ads were black and white, so the colors are ours.
