Mt. Joy – Ironwood?

I found this one in an AAA Guide to Winter Sports Fun in Michigan published in The Cass City Chronicle on Feb. 3, 1966. The listing says Mt. Joy had a 1000′ slope with tows and several beginners slopes. The map places it a bit south and east of Ironwood, south of Big Powderhorn and Indianhead. The map wasn’t really meant to be locational, except in a general sense. That’s a big area and I haven’t noticed anything like an old, overgrown small ski area on the satellite.

If you have any information about skiing at Mt. Joy in the western UP, please post it here in a comment or send it to us via the directions on the About MILSAP page.
