Last Updated: September 7, 2023
From 1967 Tomorrowland Info Packet:
Walt Disney Productions plans to build a truly unique outdoor recreational center at Mineral King, a majestic alpine site in California's High Sierra.
WED is now at work on intermediate studies and master-planning for the area, always being guided by the need to preserve and protect Mineral King's
unparalleled natural beauty. Eventually, the development would include a self-contained village, 20 ski lifts, major hoick and lodges, ten restaurants, a generous snow play area and all necessary auxiliary services. It is estimated that Mineral King will attract 1.7 million visitors annually when it is fully developed.

From Lessee Report 1968:
Mineral King, California The go-ahead has been given by the United States Department of the Interior for the construction of State Road 276 from Three Rivers to Mineral King in California's High Sierra. This road is a basic requirement in the planning permit granted to Walt Disney Productions by the United States Forest Service, which will administer the development of Mineral King as a year-round outdoor recreational area. Construction will be under a program that calls for completion of the road and the opening of Mineral King to the public by October, 1973. Walt Disney Productions continues to work with the U.S. Forest Service to develop a master plan which will meet the recreational needs of the general public, and, at the same time, insure maximum protection and enhancement of the area's natural beauty.
