Mt. Gile Ski Area
East Auburn, ME
1960's

According to a 1969 Ski Maine Promotion and First Tracks, the East Auburn Community Unit ran a 550 foot long rope tow in East Auburn during the 1960's.  The area was run mostly for the children in the community, as residents got to ski for free.

Here's a topographic map of the area, courtesy of Terraserver.
Here's an aerial map of the area(flipped so bottom of slope is at bottom of photo) courtesy of Terraserver. Notice how there was one main slope, and a few side trails.

That's all I have on this one, anybody have anything else to add?  If so, please let us know!
