The Abandoned Manitoba 2 video series by Graham Street, Shaun Cameron, and Gordon Goldsborough visits ghost towns, vacant buildings, and other historic sites from Manitoba's past. Join us as we explore back roads to places that tell great stories about how things used to be, and how we have ended up where we are today.
In this video, we search for a hill in the Pembina River valley near La Riviere where, starting in 1935, Winnipeggers took a train to enjoy a day of downhill skiing. We struggle through deep snow to find the old ski slopes.
