I was at the hill yesterday and Discovery wasn’t running, much to the chagrin of many beginners who therefore had no terrain at MH East that suited their abilities. It’s a shame, b/c this is an amazing beginner pod with just the right length, a little variety, perfect pitch and world class views. When we asked employees, we were told the lift is broken, though didn’t get any more details than that.

Are these sheaves the ones that explode or are those a different model?
