I made some adjustments but found it almost impossible to reconstruct the Boreal lift history with the information I have. At various points, lifts had letters, numbers and names. The numbers were in geographic order rather than construction order. It’s clear both the Riblet and Yan installation records I have are not complete.

Looking at trail maps from the mid to late 2000s, it appears Gold Rush was shortened in 2005 and renamed Discovery, and was removed in 2008 when Castle Peak was built.
What about the Mineshaft double and Chair 5 (https://skimap.org/data/523/1/1359348835.pdf / https://skimap.org/data/523/2200/1444605806.jpeg)? Could it be that 49er was a new installation in 1991 or 1992? And that the Dutchman has always been a triple? Also it loks like Chair 4 is the ancestor of the Accelator and not Chair 1 (https://skimap.org/data/523/2200/1444605806.jpeg).
