State of New York makes it nearly impossible for the ORDA resorts to sell on equipment as they have to get Albany’s approval and then auction the goods with a minimum number of bids (I think three). The resort has a Hall double in the boneyard that is slowly being buried for much the same reason.
At one point in the early 2000’s, this lift had its chairs painted yellow, pink, green, and blue. The towers might have also been painted but I’m not sure.
Looks like a nice Riblet. Hoping it is relocated somewhere out West.

I don’t get the point of that. That lift looks like after a quick refurbish it could be good as new.
