Schanzen: Bear Mountain

My father was Hans Strand, who jumped at Bear Mt. in the40’s and ran the ski jumps until the early 80’s. John Martin hosted the ski jumpers and their families at Bear Mt. Inn, Joe McManus made sure we had snow (and sometimes crushed ice,) and my father took care of the rest. My brother (Hans, Jr) jumped the “big hill” when he was 11 (1962) and had a full scholarship for ski jumping University of Nevada at Reno. I spent every weeekend on the hill watching the jumpers fly. It was a magical time

The longest fallen jump

Sorry I am notpicking again. All the newspapers I can find in the archive of Norway's national library has Jappen Eriksen's fallen jump as 36 m, not 36.5.
