Sapphire Valley History

SOUTHERN SNOW SKIING
After years of taking his family from Sapphire Valley to other ski areas like Cataloochee near Waynesville, Gene Howerdd, Jr. (founding family of Sapphire Valley) was convinced Sapphire Valley could support southern skiing.

EARLY SNOW MAKING
The first year, 1964, included only a rope tow and basic snow making equipment to test the market and snow making processes. After a successful first year, a double chair lift was installed and the base lodge served wine, fondue, and hot chocolate to keep visitors fueled!
