Indianhead Mountain
Indianhead Mountain is located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in Wakefield Township, Gogebic County. Indianhead Mountain is in an area called "Big Snow Country", so named because of the annual average snowfall, courtesy of the lake effect〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lake Effect explanation )〕 from Lake Superior. The area is home to several popular ski resorts such as Big Powderhorn and Blackjack Ski Resort.
== History ==
The roots of Indianhead Mountain Resort tie in closely with the past and current economy of the area. In the late 1950s, Jack English, an amateur pilot from Chicago, over flew Indian Head Mountain. After seeing the abundant snow and area conditions, he developed Indianhead Mountain Resort. This was the impetus for the local ski industry—in the following years, other resorts opened and the area became a skiing hotspot. English is credited with creating the ski industry in the area, and shifting the local economy away from the failing iron mines to one of the most popular ski destinations in the country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Local Ski Industry )〕 An indication of how important skiing has become to the region is Gogebic Community College's ski area management program,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gogebic Community College's Ski Management program )〕 one of the few in the country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Area History )〕
