The first competition at Vang near Hamar was already held in 1902 on the former Skjesetbakken.
A modern 70 m ski jumping hill was built at Lierberget in 1972, then hosting NM in 1973 and 1977. Further more there was a Norwegian hills tournament in 1970's with competitions on Lierberget, in Rena, Raufoss and Lillehammer.
For the Norwegian championships in 1986 the facility was converted and the team event of NM 1988 was held there as well. Finally the biggest ski jumping event at Hamar took place in 1989 with Junior World Championships. Norway's Kent Johanssen won the title in ski jumping and Austria the team competition. The last conversion of both Lierbergetbakken took place in 1995, but in 2004 the inrun tower was partially removed and the hills were finally shut down.
The planning for the 15m crownes (1.9m Euro) expensive new-construction of "Lierberget Aktivitetspark" at the site of the former ski jumps has started in 2009. Works began in August 2011 and by end of 2013 four plastic covered ski jumping hills K60, K40, K25 and K15 with lift and artificial snow machines were developed in cooperation of the ski clubs Veldre Ski, Vang SF, Nordbygda/Løten Ski und Furnes SF.

Displaying the data/entries for the old hills
I see that you have changed this one a little bit. I finally managed to find the data for the old K84 hill by clicking on the K84 (1972-2012) link, but that isn't very intuitive, and I think most readers will not be able to find it. I hope you can rearrange it so that the data for all the Lierberget hills will be visible on the page.
I also think it might be a good idea to make a separate entry for the Gjørsliberget hill, even though it seems to have been on the same spot as the later Lierberget hills. That will make it easier to find Gjørsliberget without searching via Google.
Updates
The building of the new hills were finished in 2012. Now there are 5 hills (K7, K15, K25, K40 and K70), with plastic mattings in K25 and K40. In the future all the other hills also will have plastic mattings.
