The Coach lift is a Yan and is the old Deer Point lift. The current Deer Point Express is actually the 3rd Deer Point lift. The original one, which was apparently a Poma (this surprised me since all the other original lifts at Bogus are Riblet. Maybe it was a used lift?). At some point in the late 70s/early 80s, it was replaced with a Yan double. I don’t know when the change happened, but I started skiing at Bogus in 1982, and the Yan lift was already in place.
I think Coach is the old Pine Creek double, but shortened.

Correction: It is Deer Point with new Yan chairs, towers, and top terminal.

The lift was upgraded to Yan in 1981. I’ll see if I can find any old pictures of it.

Chair 3 (Superior) had 71, not 81. Should be bumping up to 86 if my counting of the chairs in the Employee Lot was correct.

2 has 65 chairs now, and 3 has 89. 4 has ~135, and 5 has ~105. I keep forgetting those two numbers.
