Copper Peak History
How We Became Copper Peak
For over 50 years, the majestic Copper Peak ski jump tower has stood tall, overseeing 2,500 square miles, spanning 3 states, and commanding breathtaking views of the stunning Lake Superior. Hosting 10 ski flying events from 1970 to 1994, this iconic landmark boasts an impressive history.
Although its ski jumping events have ended for the time being, Copper Peak continues to attract thousands of visitors annually. Ascending the chairlift to the landing, guests take the elevator up the tower’s 18 stories and venture up the final 8 stories, rewarded with panoramic vistas. The surrounding hills also offer winding single-track trails for mountain biking enthusiasts, while many others come to capture the vibrant colors of fall, immerse themselves in the presence of captivating wildlife, or simply unwind in this tranquil setting.
The rich legacy and potential of Copper Peak are undeniable as we anticipate even greater wonders yet to come!
