Actually, I think you might have already featured this in one of your round ups. I was just wondering if it was this one or the quad on the other side of the mountain that they were replacing. I assume it’s this one, though since it’s older and lower capacity.
Honestly, I would rather see them replace this lift with a gondola, as no one really goes all the way down for lapping and it is mainly used for just getting skiers up the hill to other areas. A second lift would then be needed to replace the Klondike portion, and it would be great if it were detachable, but a fixed-grip is more likely. If they would only commit to one detachable chairlift beyond my gondola idea, I would rather see it be for Silver Lode.
I don’t think 49 degrees north has the money to replace this with a gondola although that sounds like a good idea. I think your idea could be possible if 49 degrees north was bought by MCP.
I’m hoping I can get my hands on of these carriers, I’d love to like hang one up. But I can understand if they wanted to keep them for spare parts or sell them to another resort.
The chairs from this lift are not compatible with the other two SLI’s as these have the slightly less angled hanger arms and the Riblet clip adapters welded in.
I’ve been having the issue for about 2 weeks now, nothing I’ve tried has fixed it. To view the spreadsheets I’ve had to use Microsoft Edge. Google is saying it’s a WordPress issue

That operatior house sure would look good with a Uni-G or a LPA next to it. I wonder if they were planning for a new detach quad when they built it?

It’ll be a UNI G.

They announced that they’re building a new high speed lift. I assume this is the one they’re taking out.
They really need it here too. This lift takes forever to ride up from the bottom.

Any link to the announcement?

It’s in this article. Sounds like it’s a few years off.

They’re replacing this with a high speed quad.
Although I can see Silver Lode and/or Sunrise also going the route of high speed quads in the future.

I’d see Silverlode going first as Sunrise is a CTEC installing in 2005, and it seems perfectly fine when I went a week away from closing.

Assuming the webcams stay online through the summer, the construction of the high speed quad should be partially visible.

Where can I find the webcams of the construction?

Are you talking about the spreadsheets? I’ve heard that from a few people but they are working fine for me.
