Nels Nelsen Hillとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Nels Nelsen Hill, originally Big Hill, is an abandoned ski jumping hill complex located in Mount Revelstoke National Park near Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada. Originally built in 1916, it was the first ski jumping venue in Canada and saw four world records set until 1933. Between 1939 and 1948 the hill was disused, but was rebuilt as a K-80 hill from then, when it took the new name in honor of Nels Nelsen, a local ski jumper who had among other things set a world record in the hill. From 1949, it was the venue of the Tournament of Champions, as well as many other events, including the 1949 edition of the Western Canada Western Canada Ski Championships. There was also a small K-60 hill, and other hills even smaller, in the vicinity. The last major tournament was held in 1974, and the last use was in 1975. It has since fallen into disrepair.
