MILSAP — the Michigan Lost Ski Areas Project

Welcome to MILSAP! We are dedicated to collecting and publishing information about the history of lift-served ski areas in Michigan.  If you have fond memories of flying down the slopes on your favorite hill, but the area has closed, let us know about it. Michigan has a long, rich history of skiing and sliding and it should not be forgotten. Please help us keep it alive by sharing your recollections, snapshots, memorabilia, news clippings, home movies, or whatever you may have that would remind you and others of the places where people used to enjoy winter in Michigan.

We have organized the areas by: Jumping Hills, Ski Regions (for lost areas) and Current Areas (for the history of ski areas that are still open). You can find these links on the drop-down menus at the bottom of our header. You can also see the complete list of our area pages at the bottom of the right-hand pane on each of our pages. If your android device works like mine, you will do better to use the page links at the right.

If you wish to leave comments, please add them to the appropriate page. General comments are fine on the home page, but comments about any particular area should be left on that area’s page if you want them to be seen by others interested in that area.

You can send your information, pictures, scans, etc. to milsap@comcast.net. If you have items you cannot digitize to forward by email, please contact me by email and I will give you my snail mail address. You can either send copies or, if you wish to send originals, I will copy them and return your originals.
