It’s the old Lake Compounce SkyRide but with a new SkyTrac terminal. I imagine the restraining bars will be replaced but it should be using the CTEC chairs and towers.
Wondering why they are replacing it. To go from a triple to a quad is a small step in capacity. Looks like it was well maintained. Seem like a lot of Borvigs are getting replaced. Just age?
Does anyone have any reference pictures for the new lift? Coming from CT, new terminal, but new chairs and other stuff?

surprising considering they have even older double chairs still hanging around at this mountain
