    This lift is an insane upgrade from the old rivulet triple. I was at the highlands a few weeks ago and never got cold on this lift. One thing I did notice, on Jan 4, it was running significantly slower than normal 500 fpm.

    I know the highlands has plans to use this for the bike park, but am wondering what the ride time will be for it in the summer.
