I’m glad that another small Alberta ski area is expanding their lift system! Here is a picture of the Mueller T-Bar. Any idea where it came from?

Likely Kinosoo Ridge, which replaced its T-Bar with a Doppelmayr quad a few years back.

Peter, thanks for clarifying. There are still quite a few Chairlift served ski areas in Alberta (that’s where I’m from) that are not on Liftblog yet. However, there is an old website that has some pictures.

Canyon Resort – 2 Mueller Chairlifts, M-Latta T-Bar,

The quad at hidden valley is actually a BM Lifts quad, not a doppelmayr.
