Re the Canadian lift data base: The lifts at Devil’s Elbow (Bethany Ski Resort) still exist and are reviewed by the TSSA: https://www.tssa.org/sites/default/files/2023-10/SKI-Aging-Lifts-Periodic-Engineering-Review-and-Assessment-Guideline-224-07-r2-2022.pdf
However, I appreciate the area is currently non-operating and the new owners may not be receptive. Regardless, a great accomplishment visiting 750 Canadian ski areas!
