Lower section of the line.Early-generation Garaventa CTEC detachable terminal.Side view of the bottom station.Riding up with no one around.Upper lift line.Looking back towards Solitude.Arriving up top.Unload ramp and lift shack.Breakover towers.Top terminal.Depression tower.Another view of the line.Tower 7.Just above the bottom terminal.
This lift now has Skytrac exterior controls and Skytrac displays/controls on the electrical cabinets in the lift shacks. I wonder what kind of work they did on the electrical systems. Anyone seen them do similar work on other detachable?
Definitely haven’t been on a high-speed quad with some unique terminals. This lift is an older model probably. This is me and my dad’s highest lift and probably one of the most scenic lifts we’ve been on. Definitely a quieter lift and man this lifts long and kinda slower than other high speed quads I’ve been on. Love for them to improve the speed on this lift
I haven’t been to Brighton enough times to say this for sure, but I have never seen this lift particularly crowded, it also didn’t seem especially slow compared to other contemporary HSQ, just is… a very long lift. It could use some better wind protection up top but I doubt there is anything major that could be done.

I’m sure one thing on a photographer’s mind in this position is “I can see Snowbird from here”:

The slanty ends on the terminals seem like CTEC’s attempt to emulate Poma’s Competition terminals.

It’s much more likely there are design elements from the Garaventa terminals being built in Europe at the same time as this lift.
