Skiers enjoy the season's first runs on Silver King Ski Hill, predecessor to the beloved Whitewater Ski Resort, December 21, 1968. The ski area was created out of a local passion for outdoor activity on the former site of a tramline from the Silver King Mine. Families enjoyed it's slopes until the development of Whitewater in the early 1970s.
