| "Two people reported
another ski area that operated for a short time in Berlin. Walter
Nadeau of the Berlin and Coos Historical Society and newspaper
columnist and local historian Paul "Poof'
Tardif both provided recollections of the Mt. Jasper rope tow.
Nadeau said he believes the rope tow was built in the last forties and lasted only a year or two. He said the motor and building were vandalized and the owner never repaired the damage. In fact, Nadeau said for years the remnants of the tow motor machinery was left there. The slope was between Mt. Jasper and what is now the Berlin high school. Tardif remembered that the run ended about where the running track is now. He said there were two trails." Here is a view of the area today. Not much to see. The remnants of a few trails may be visible.
