Attitash Bear Peak, Experience New Hampshire — c. 1990s

A vintage Attitash Bear Peak ski patch, estimated to date from the 1990s, featuring a yellow sun throwing stitched rays across a silver peak. “Attitash Bear Peak” in red on a silver band, “Experience” over the top, “New Hampshire” underneath. Black arch, blue sky, crisp merrowed edge.

This is the patch of a resort with a marketing department. After the 1995–96 season Attitash was folded into American Skiing Company, alongside a string of mountains across the East, and everything got a tagline.

The sun is doing a lot of work here. So is the word "Experience." Somebody still drove up Route 302 in February to buy it.

Embroidered, merrowed edge. Photos are the condition report.
