History of Mt. Spokane Ski Patrol |

In 1938 Mt. Spokane had a single rope tow on the west face. The Mt. Spokane Ski Patrol was organized and began providing their services to area skiers during the 1938-39 season. Over the next 64 years the Patrol has covered Mt. Spokane with an all-volunteer system. The ski area has evolved, grown and expanded around the mountain to 5 chair lifts and the addition of night skiing. The first aid room, starting in a corner of Cook's small log cabin, has moved from site to site until the completion of our present Ski Patrol Building.
Ken Henderson founded the Mt. Spokane Ski Patrol and intermittently acted as director over the next 29 years. This Patrol was fourth to register with the National system, which was also started in 1938. A letter from Ken related the incident that prompted the formation of this patrol, I am sure similar events occurred at other areas. |
