They've been ski jumping at Suicide Bowl, Ishpeming-Negaunee for about 125 years now. I personally attended 1985 meet.
I've seen Copper Peak, though not during competition ...

[@Ad-excelsum]

That is such an ominous name lol. Copper Peak must be awesome. I've personally been to Nagano and Albertville although there wasn't any meet when I went there.
