Did this lift ever have counterweight tensioning originally opposed to the current hydraulic setup? This lifts sister lives on at Big Sky as Cascade, a real estate lift and it was upgraded to hydraulic tension during the relocation.
First lift I ever operated.
This lift replaced two (at least) rope tows that I spent an inordinate amount of time on as a young kid.

Summer of ’00 while doing line work, Kenny (RIP) told me the line was too flat to need tensioning. I feel like that can’t be true, though.
