This lift was relocated with some CTEC towers added.Top drive/tension station.View down the upper lift line.Top terminal with counterweight way behind.Fixed bottom bullwheel behind the load point.Lower part of the line.View down the lift.Middle section of the line.
It was either installed in 1979 (the same year as Chairs 5 & 6) or 1980 as it is shown on a map predating the Chair 8, which was installed in 1981. The lift used to start closer in elevation to the top of Chair 5 (older maps cite 2250 ft. length and 500 ft. vertical), but was extended downhill in 1990 when the Chair 10 runs were cut.
