Will Molly Hogan also be an Alpha given how short it is? Does Poma (rather than Skytrac) have another terminal design to use for something this short? It looks like there are at least three Alpha front masts for bottom-drive depression sheaves (two per lift). Will Molly be realigned? There is plenty of room between Pali and the HSQ for a longer Molly

Do you have more information on that Gondola at Yellowstone? Also, is it neccecary to specify it’s fixed? Detacheble jigbakcs don’t make a lot of sense to me.

It will be from a ski run on the Eglise side up to some houses along the golf course. Just two 8 passenger cabins. 2x1x8 MGFJ is how Doppelmayr describes it.

Did Bousquet get the winning bid on Hayfever or Witches at Hermitage?

Negative, all the Hermitage lifts were acquired by the homeowner group which bought the club.

So I guess it is the old Barnstormer triple.

No, Hayfever. What I’m saying is it was not sold as part of the auction.
