Mueller top drive terminal.Drive unit from below.This lift’s chairs were supplied later by Partek.View down the line with lattice towers.Upper section of the line.Loading area.Bottom terminal with counterweight tensioning.
I know that Sunshine Village dismantled the Teepee Town double chair which had Parteks on it. Sunshine said they sold the chairs to a small resort in BC. I’m not 100 percent sure but these could be the Parteks from sunshine.
The chairs from TeePee Town either came here or went to Purden Ski Village. Both are small ski resorts in BC. Purden’s Baker Creek chair has newer Partek chairs.
I doubt I’ll ever ski/ride here, but I have an almost irrational attachment to lattice towers. It’s like the last shreds of old ski history are coming down. Sad that they’re going to go, but I’m sure a new lift will improve capacity and long-term access to parts and (eventual) repairs.

The lift towers and upper and lower stations came from the Brohm Ridge ski area, which never became operational.

It’s not the same. P2P has gigantic towers, like trams, but the chairlift lattice towers are smaller and are very cool to ride.
