It doesn’t appear so. It looks to be designed for the bubbles to clear both ramps while closed, so I would guess the operator just opens them at the bottom if people are getting on and the top operator closes them after people get off. Otherwise they would just stay closed at all times.
I made a Google Earth Project to show all the lift location at YC and Spanish Peaks. I thru in the Shedhorn Lift as It pertains to the Cow Flats Platter lift.
Are there any bubble opening/closing rails on this lift? If not, how do the bubbles close on the downhill side?
