Sharktooth Ski Area Hoodie
Sharktooth Ski Area Hoodie
Sharktooth Ski Area near Greeley, Colorado, opened in December 1971 on a sandstone bluff above the Poudre River. It had one slope, one rope tow and a vertical drop of 150 feet, the lowest ski area Colorado ever had. Greeley mayor and college professor Dick Perchlik built it with Clyde Davis after spotting the snowy bluff from a plane. Fossil shark teeth found during construction gave it the name.
It was a hill for beginners, college ski classes and night skiing, with snowmaking, tubing and an ice rink. Prairie wind dropped topsoil on the snow and once closed the runs with tumbleweeds. Low snow and insurance costs ended skiing in 1986.
About the design: Redrawn from Sharktooth's own logo on its letterhead from about 1980, in its original blue.
