Curry Hill (Ironwood)

Curry Hill was a K50 ski jumping hill located in Ironwood, Michigan, United States with two official world records set. It was operated by Ironwood Ski Club and Norrie Athletic Club.

History
The Ironwood Ski Club (organized in 1905) operated the 40 meter Curry Hill ski jump from 1906 through 1914 and the Norrie Athletic Club operated the 50 meter Curry Hill site from 1922 to 1930 when it collapsed after a snow storm.

On 18 February 1911, American Anders Haugen set the first official world record at 152 ft, the same day his fellow Barney Riley fell at 154 ft world record distance.

On 18 February 1912, American James Presthus fell at 156 ft world record distance and did not count as record.

On 16 February 1913, American Ragnar Omtvedt set the second official world record at 169 ft at the afternoon longest standing jump competition and earlier that day he successfully landed at 158 ft world record distance, but it didn't count as this was the professional competition. Barney Riley crashed that day at 161 and 165 feet, but the order of jumps is not clear, so it is not clear if those two were falls at world record distances or not, depends if those two jumps happened before or after Omtvedt set world record at 169 ft.

Elsewhere in 1915, American Ragnar Omtvedt successfully landed at 184 ft world record distance, but did not count as it was set at unofficial event.
