During the end of the day rush, I would say that the alternate routes to the gondola are faster at getting you down, and they’re definitely faster than waiting for a bus if the gondola is closed for whatever reason. If you’re transiting from Peak 8 over to the Peak 7 base resorts, it’s faster to take the Rocky Mountain SuperChair and ski down Claimjumper to Fort Mary B. And if you’re parked in the south Gondola Lot, it’s easier to take the Colorado SuperChair or Lift 5 and then ski down Four O’Clock to the Gondola Ski-Back.
Are those CWA cabins? Why didn’t Leitner-Poma use Sigma?

This lift was built before Doppelmayr bought CWA, and when Poma Still used CWA

Doppelmayr acquired CWA in 2001. The last Leitner-Poma gondola with CWA cabins was built in 2008.
