King Pine Ski Area, Crowned Script — c. 1970s

A vintage King Pine Ski Area ski patch, estimated to date from the 1970s, featuring a skier in red heading down a silver slope while a big green pine leans in from the left. “King Pine SKI AREA” runs across the sky in red script with a small crown on the K. An oval with a white merrowed edge.

King Pine opened for the 1962–63 season in East Madison, built by Purity Spring Resort across the road. The Hoyt family had been running the place since long before anyone there skied.

When King Ridge went to auction in 1995, one of its triple chairs came here. Two kings, one chair. The pine is the one still standing.

Embroidered on twill, merrowed edge. Photos are the condition report.
