This lift services the center of the mountain and operates every day.Leaving the bottom station.View down the lift line with Soleil in the background.Arriving up top.Return bullwheel.Upper part of the lift line.This lift was probably relocated from somewhere else.Lower lift line.View up at tower 2.The final few towers.Drive terminal side view.
It’s a possibility, but I doubt it. Chantecler’s three 1985 Doppelmayr lifts all have (or had) the same motor room design, different from this design they used. And, the plastic slats on all chairs were blue, while Dynastar has green plastic slats.
It was kind of overkill for Wentworth to have 2 Quad chairs, and 2 t-bars. The old Glades quad (as it was known) served a small black terrain pod that can be easily reached by the blue chair. My guess is that the hill was in a tough financial spot and smartly decided to let go of one of your chairs (which probably never ran anyway), and not close any terrain. They still have 1 t-bar that runs with the quad though.
The lift came to Morin Heights with very low hours on it and from what I have heard was under-utilized at Ski wentworth. The lift was installed around 2000ish
This was the old glades chair from ski wentworth. The chair ran over the buns bumps trail. The chair was in an area of the mountain that had little snowmaking and often only ran on weekends. It was a poor decision to install this chair as it was underutilized. At the time, wentworth had another quad chair, two t bars and rope tows.
The chair was relocated in 2001 after the hill was in financial difficulties and rumored to be sold.
wentworth installed a 2nd chairlift that runs the whole length of the mountain.

Could this have been relocated from Ski Chantecler’s closed area?

This lift came from “Ski Wentworth” in Nova Scotia. It was know as the green chair.

Why did they remove it, leaving the blue chair as the only lift.

I see what you mean. Wentworth kinda went a little overkill.

Ironic comment because Wentworth once again has two quad chairs. Certainly they must be in a better financial position now.

Last year of operation of this lift (Élévation quad will replace it for 2024)

I find that Élévation should really be a detachable, because the other lifts at Morin Heights are all triples, aged and slow.
