At the turn of the last century, vast sums of resources were extracted from the Triumph Mine, just a mile or two from what became the world's first ski resort built by New York financiers. These same financiers traded stock in the parent company that owned the Triumph and controlled a raw material that became more important than gold. This is the story of some miners, some skiers, and a few song writers. It's a story of some regular hard-working Americans caught up in a battle halfway around the globe, a battle that needed Tetra Ethylene Lead to begin. It's a love story, set at a time when life was far simpler and folks made do. Step into the Triumph Mine: it's warm inside this 8,000 foot mountain in winter. When you step out, the whole world looks "Bright White."
