Cochran’s Ski Area in Richmond is tiny but mighty.
The ski area was started in the early 1960s by Mickey and Ginny Cochran.
Their children, Bob, Barbara Ann, Marilyn and Lindy, came to be known as the “The Skiing Cochrans.” They represented the U.S. in the Winter Olympics, with Barbara Ann winning the gold in 1972.
In this episode, Barbara Ann talks about the ski area's early days, her racing career and what makes Cochran’s an extraordinary place.
