The Retreat Ski Area in North Sherburne, Vermont, opened for the 1946-47 season on a hill above Route 100, fourteen miles from Rutland. Claus Bartenstein, called Bart, built a 600-foot rope tow powered by a Ford Model A engine, with car wheels for pulleys. A day of skiing cost a dollar.

Guests slept in the Retreat lodge across the road, and a station wagon ran skiers out from Rutland. The tow closed in 1950 and went to Pico. Bart's Hill Road now climbs the old slope.

About the design: Redrawn from the hand-lettered title on The Retreat's own 1940s trail map, with a small scene from the same map.

Printed to order in the USA when you buy it. Standard US shipping is free on orders of $55 or more. Shipping details.
