Ski Titus Mountain Winter 2007

 
 

A Little Bit of History

                

Way back in the late 1940's, the John Johnson family here in Chasm Falls decided to make their long North Country winters a little more fun!  They constructed a rope-tow up one of their hills, powered from the back wheel of a retired old Buick sedan.  It wasn't long 'til their neighbors discovered the joy of sliding down a slope without having to climb back up it.  A ski center had been born!  Moon Valley opened to the public in 1960 and quickly became an important part of our local community, offering healthy recreation & a great solution to winter's doldrums.  In 1980, Moon Valley was sold and became the property of Mr. Paul Augustine, who changed it's name to Titus Mountain.  Through the guidance and support of Mr. Augustine, we have grown our trail network to the summit of our mountain, introduced modern snowmaking & grooming, added lifts & base facilities, improved our services, and always remained focused on Paul's goal of delivering unmatched value in a family-friendly setting.

     

Mr. Paul Augustine, Owner of Titus Mountain & a pioneer in the ski industry, was honored in 2008 with the National Ski Areas Association's Lifetime Achievement Award in appreciation for his many contributions to the business, as well as the sport, of skiing.

                          Congratulations, Paul . . . & Thanks!
