This lift looks like a Riblet but was actually built after that company folded.Bottom terminal.Upper station.Top bullwheel.The last tower and upper station.View down the line.Custom tower.Lower line.Tower 3.Loading area and operator house.Lift line overview.
The Gray lift was engineered and built by Superior but mostly from Riblet service and replacement parts – chairs, grips, sheaves. The tower heads are custom. The motor room enclosure was found from somewhere out west and matches the motor rooms of the rest of newer Riblets at the ski area.
Wow! I have never seen an entire Superior Tramways chair before. Are there any others?
