História

O estudante de Dartmouth College, Fred Harris (1888-1961), fundou o Dartmouth Outing Club em 1909 e se tornou "o homem que colocou a América em esquis"

O Telegraph Nashua (NH) observa que, em 1914, um grupo de estudantes de Dartmouth viajou para o Canadá para competir contra a Universidade McGill na primeira corrida de esqui colegial. A corrida do Dartmouth Outing Club de 1927 no Monte Moosilauke é citada pela US Ski & Snowboard Association como a primeira corrida de esqui em declive no país.

Em 1935, a equipe de esqui era suficientemente distinta do clube de passeio para ter seu próprio capitão distinto; O primeiro capitão de esqui ″ foi Selden Hannah D35, embora houvesse "capitães de esportes de inverno" antes disso.

A equipe de esqui de Dartmouth venceu o Campeonato Nacional da NCAA em 1958, 1976 (empatado com o Colorado) e 2007. A equipe terminou em segundo lugar em 1955, 1956, 1964, 1969 e 1970.
