The Spirit Mountain Recreation Area opened for skiing 50 years ago today — Dec. 20, 1974. To mark the occasion, Perfect Duluth Day dusts off a relic from the video archive featuring Duluth businessman Manley “Monnie” Goldfine presenting the concept for developing Spirit Mountain to the Twin Ports Press Club. The date of the presentation is not known, but the year is most likely 1972.
This segment is part of a longer video, “The First Half-century of Goldfines in Business,” previously featured on PDD.
Spirit Mountain celebrates its 50th anniversary this weekend with events honoring its history.
