This Riblet is actually the newest of five double chairs built at June Mountain but was abandoned around 2008.There was a mid-station that once served beginner skiers just below these crazy angled towers.Fixed return bullwheel up top with a Yan operator house.Top station overview.The breakover towers and lift line.Lower part of the line and former middle station.Side view of the top four towers.Overhead drive with counterweight tensioning.
they don’t need a high speed lift because its expert terrain, but they should put a gondola here for foot traffic to the chalet and beginner skiers, and keep j1+run it a little faster
The towers and upper operator shack have all been removed now and are piled up in the forest behind the old mid station. The terminals are still standing.

They should replace this with a fixed grip quad or six that runs up to where the midstation was.

I’d run a high speed six pack all the way to the top of the ridge, with a midstation at the old midstation point.

Sorry Curtis but there needs to be a high speed lift to bring people up the mountain faster

I’ve been here before these towers looked broken
the bottom station looks very over grown
they should just keep this lift in operation again
