Submitted by: Westby House InnWestby, WI - SouthwestIt is a tradition that has gone on since 1923, and has put Westby on the international ski jump map. I think it has given Westby some recognition and identity, said Dr. P.T. Bland, who has been a major supporter of the annual event for more than three decades. Skiers come from 10-15 countries. Since the event has been a Continental Cup competition, we get skiers who are just one notch away from World Cup status and possible Olympians. We have Olympic medal winners jump here. Located just 1/2 mile North of Westby on County Road P. Visit www.snowflakeskiclub.com for more information.
