Recent search for silver coins on Ruud Mountain unearthed a token of Sun Valley's treasured ski history.
"The medal is not very big, but it brings back a lot of old stories," Randy McCann said. Last month, McCann, a Ketchum resident, ventured to Ruud Mountain with his medal detector in tow.
He combed the hillside for close to 10 hours looking for silver coins. "I was just out poking around," said McCann, who often takes his medal detector to remote locations to find trinkets.

This was a great story to read especially as he has since learned that the medal was won during the fourth annual Harriman Cup Races and National Championships held at Sun Valley in 1940. The Harriman Cup was a prestigious ski race started by Averell Harriman, the founder of Sun Valley Resort.
