Haugen Hill in Dillon, Colorado, was a ski jumping hill owned by the Dillon Ski Club and built specifically for jumping rather than alpine skiing. With a K-point of 60 meters, it ranked among the larger jumping hills of its era. Peter Prestrud, Eyvin Flood, and Anders Haugen constructed the hill, which opened on March 8, 1918. During its active years, it gained distinction as the site of two ski jumping world records. Haugen Hill is no longer in use.
