Who would have thought a "flat" province would have so many abandoned ski hills?
My third ski hill in the past few years, this was is the least exciting but still has its perks. At one time it could brag about "Saskatchewan's only ski tunnel" - this long abandoned ski hill has been turned into biking trails. The chalet remains boarded up, its history locked inside. The lifts still going up the hill and cables laying on the ground.
I also found an abandoned church on my way home from this hill so I decided to share that as well!

be aware ski with care
Another Ski Hill?!?!
Crazy I know. I'm giving the credit to SaskUrbex for this one. If it weren't for him I would have never figured out that this existed. This neat little find this hill was surprisingly intact with plenty of vandalism. The chalet was definitely the most interesting, but sitting on an abandoned chair of a ski lift was an interesting experience. This ski hill had a chair lift, T-bar and quite a few runs. Overgrown now and with years of neglet its surprising that there is still glass in some of the windows and not everything was stolen.
A neat place to document.
