HISTORY OF SKIING IN THE WRIGHTWOOD AREA
 
In the San Gabriel Mountains, the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation was developing Big Pines, a summer and winter park facility west of Wrightwood. The county officially opened Big Pines Park in 1924. In 1929, a 1,150 ft. world-class ski jump was completed in time for the park’s third annual winter carnival.
 
The Blue Ridge ski resort, predecessor of today’s Mountain High West opened in 1937 with a basic rope tow. The resort modernized its facilities when it began operating California’s 2nd ever chairlift in 1947. Blue Ridge became Mountain High when it was purchased by Dick Woodworth in 1975. In 1981, nearby Holiday Hill was purchased by Mountain High and it became part of the combined Mountain High Ski Areas. Ski Sunrise located just north of Big Pine was also incorporated into the Mountain High Ski Areas.
