Lift-5 Loveland- As sad as it is to see it go, it’s time. If they are not going to replace it, get it down.

They proposed to replace it years ago, but that will most likely not happen as its cheaper to run a bus between the two areas.
The real question is when the chair auction will be :)

I was able to ski Harley Pointe on a weekday in February, obviously no crowds to speak of, so it seems to me that that’s a lot of lift for the ski area.
It looked like they were working on the abandoned part of the ski area to the right as you ride the lift up.
I’d like to see a rendering of the proposed changes.
They are investing a lot of money, I hope it pays off for them, and I look forward to returning soon.
