History:
There was once a small ski slope with a ski jump on Punkatasset Hill north of Concord, Massachusetts in the 1920s and 30s. Even Norwegian top jumpers are said to have been there around 1927.
From 1935, there was a company in Concord, which is actually not a winter sports resort, which was dedicated to the manufacture of ski bindings. The Dovre Ski Binding Company was founded by the Norwegian immigrants Leif Nashe and Odd Overgaard and was at times well known for the quality of their bindings. The two are also said to have been responsible for training young ski jumpers and the construction of the smaller ski jump at the Middlesex School, which was destroyed by a hurricane in 1938.
