History:

In 1948, French ski enthusiasts reactivated the ski resort in Oukaïmeden in Morocco. Thanks to very snowy winters, two ski lifts, a bobsleigh track and even two ski jumping hills were quickly built there. Ski jumping competitions were held in January and February twice a week, because they were very popular among holidaymakers. From 1949 to 1956, the larger facility was used to host, among others: the Moroccan Championship, the Military Championship, and the Cadet Cup. The ski jumping hill had a substantial stone take-off and a knoll as well as two wooden judges' towers. Most likely, ski jumping stopped in Oukaïmeden around the 1960s, because the sport was not so popular among Moroccans. The remains of the ski jumping hills can still be found today.

SV od Oukaimeden ski jumps

Hi,
As far as I'm concerned there is no good view of ski jumping Hills on Street View. They were located few hundred meters from the main ski area, so propably there was nothing interesting enough to do a SV in the area.
However, you can see them really well on Google Earth time machine.
