Horse Mountain Ski Area Hoodie
Horse Mountain Ski Area near Willow Creek, California, ran rope tows on a ridge close to 5,000 feet in Six Rivers National Forest, where Humboldt County skiers drove up from the coast to find snow above the fog. Bill Hilfiker and friends built the first summit tow in the mid-1950s from an old V8 engine, and the Humboldt Ski Club moved up in 1958.
Dr. Jack Walsh and his family ran the area from the 1960s, adding the steep quarter-mile Ruby Creek tow and a sign above it reading Hiouska, local slang for go for it. Thin snow closed the tows in the early 1980s.
About the design: Redrawn from Horse Mountain's own embroidered patch, keeping its skiing horse, colors and layout.
