Im pretty sure gemini was only running in the summer cause zephyr broke down. At the start of the 2019 season they didn’t need to even put bike carriers on for it as the gondola is the main source up.
Will be getting a new haul rope before the winter season, all chairs are off the line. Wonder how much longer it will be around. 31 years old this year.

I believe this is the shortest operating high speed quad in Colorado, with the next closest two being the Kokomo Express and Sourdough Express.

In believe it is actually Mahogany Ridge Express at Steamboat

Mahogany Ridge is in the 6,000+ foot length.
High speed quads in Colorado shorter than Gemini are Rip’s Ride and Charity Jane.

I thought that was just temporary for last summer when Zephyr was gone but The Gondola had not been installed yet.

Peter’s photos are from summer 2016. They used this and the Eskimo Express together to get people up to Sunspot.

They always ran this lift in the summer with Zephyr and Eskimo, but with the gondola, maybe they decided they didn’t need to run it any more.

They actually had the bike carriers on this past summer. I guess if there was an issue with The Gondola, they could still serve terrain.

They ran it about 2 times only because there was an electrical problem. Still no big deal as you do get to see people send banana peel under you.

Word around the resort is that once it’s time for Gemini to get replaced, they’ll put a Telemix in like F over at Copper.

I bright idea is to maybe extend either Arrow and Gemini and make one of them go to mid mountain!

If she’s not having any mechanical issues, she could be great for another 10 years.
