[Brenda Stoops - 22 November 2004 email to Dave Brann, excerpt]
Our rope tow was not the public tow located adjacent to the [Summit
Lake] lodge. Our large and extended family had a rope tow
located behind our cabin on the north side of the highway on lower Summit
lake. The tow remains on the mountain. We had a forest service
cabin for about 15 years, certainly the better part of my childhood.
My family sold the cabin after all the kids moved off. My
grandfather was an avid skier..............and took to making sure all his
grandchildren certainly enjoyed the sport. Everyone skied in our
family, I don't believe it was an option. The tow was of
course a real hit. I remain the most active skier, and
enjoyed a great day at Manitoba yesterday. |
