History:
Established in 1928 the Eastport-Kingsgate ski jump had a unique feature. It was located exactly on the border of countries: the inrun was in the United States, and the landing hill in Canada. The facility was looked after by the cross-border ski club Kingsgate-Eastport Ski Club operating in close communities of border towns. In 1932 and 1933 there were tournaments on the hill and in the second one the best distance was 177 feet (54 m). The ski jump stopped functioning around 1940.
