Maybe from parleys summit in park city Ut it was removed sometime between 1985 and 1992? Maybe someone could dig in and find out more about that. I think at least one went to Titus mountain Ny and I believe it’s this lift https://liftblog.com/7-titus-mountain-ny/
Skilifts.org lists two Hall double instalations for Gorgoza; one in 1978 (http://www.skilifts.org/old/install_na1978.htm) and one in 1980 (http://www.skilifts.org/old/install_na1980.htm). A Hall double less than 1000 feet long was installed in 1968 during Gorgoza’s opening season. I have heard that Lift 1 at Titus was also from Gorgoza. Both lifts at Titus are closer in length to the 1978 and 1980 Hall doubles so this lift could easily be the 1968 Hall double at Gorgoza. Despite this 1968 Hall double not showing up on any lift instalation surveys, this interview says that the lift was bought new: https://collections.lib.utah.edu/details?id=828335&q=Cal+McPhie

what’s with all the cinder blocks on the counterweight? Is the rope old and stretched out too much?

Anybody know where this lift came from? It appears to have been installed sometime between 1988 and 1992 as a relocation.
