The 1970 NCAA Skiing Championships were contested at the Cannon Mountain Ski Area in Franconia, New Hampshire, at the seventeenth annual NCAA-sanctioned ski tournament to determine the individual and team national champions of men's collegiate alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, and ski jumping in the United States.[1]
Denver, coached by Willy Schaeffler, captured their thirteenth national championship and ninth in ten years. Denver finished 7.8 points ahead of runners-up Dartmouth in the team standings, the second straight year the Pioneers bested the Big Green.
Venue
This year's NCAA skiing championships were held March 4–7 in New Hampshire at Cannon Mountain Ski Area near Franconia.
The seventeenth edition, these were the second at Cannon Mountain (1964) and third in New Hampshire (1958). The 1964 championships were scheduled for Dartmouth Skiway, but rain forced the transfer of the alpine events to Cannon Mountain.
