This is the site of Ski Villa Carbon Canyon, the first and only year round ski resort in the United States. Ski Villa Carbon Canyon opened in 1966 and used interlocking plastic mats instead of snow. The mats were a bit like Astroturf that you could ski on and the skiers would slide the skis across pads of silicone before going down to help with the friction.
