I’m wrong. Several sites say it was 1993. I do know it probably came from several places. Chair stems were actually new upon relocation. It’s still a mystery where all the parts came from. The drive terminal may help narrow it down
I came across this site randomly. When they took the Copper Chair Lift down in 2024 you could buy the chairs. It’s funny because, I own #29 that’s in some of the pictures.

No. They would have been removed. Those are the hoses connecting the tension pump unit to the cylinder.

Wondering why the lift is being closed periodically ?

This lift was relocated from another ski area in 1992, hence the vault drive and older design. It probably ran in Washington or Oregon
