Notes |
The Climax Ski Area was operated mainly for the employees of the Climax Molybdenum Mine and had the first night skiing operation in the state. The mine was one of the world's largest suppliers of Molybdenum. The mine still operates on a limited basis, while the ski area has been long closed. The ski area had one T-Bar and was located at the top of Fremont Pass, between Copper Mountain and Leadville. The area got great snow and was accessed by purchasing a $10 pass. Credit: M.S.
