This is one of Red Lodge’s original lifts from 1973.Inline loading area.Riblet vault drive.View up the line.Bottom terminal from above.Lift line view.Looking up the line.Upper lift line.Breakover towers.Unload up top.Tension terminal with counterweight.Top bullwheel.
This looks older than 1973, given that some of the towers have the older crossarm design. But then, the rest have the (slightly) newer design, so perhaps it was a reinstall? Or they were retrofitted to the lift later in life? I do not know.

The table says 1962. Perhaps “1973” is a typo?
