When Vail Resorts acquired Mt. Brighton in 2013 they extensively overhauled the lift system.
Red Lift -> Chair 1
Black Lift -> Chair 2
Blue Lift – St. Lawrence double, removed, this had centerpole double chairs
Green Lift – Hall double, removed, this had bail-style double chairs
Yellow Lift – removed, this I believe was a Hall triple, similar in design to Chair 1 with the lower terminal on rollers with a counterweight
Orange Lift – Hall centerpole double, removed; some of the upper lift towers remain on the hill as light towers. The upper terminal had this funky dome over the bullwheel https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/61/Mt._Brighton_Ski_Hill.jpg
In the last few years before it was removed I don’t ever remember this lift running as there were rumors it didn’t pass inspection/certification
Orange and Blue were both St Lawrence. Blue was original to Brighton. Orange came from Irish Hills Ski Area. Green was a bail double Hall. Yellow was a triple Hall but I think it was originally a double and later converted to a triple. I swear this had triple chairs on it in the 90s but I could be wrong. The bottom terminal of yellow was the typical carriage type you saw with 60s and 70s Hall doubles.
Yellow was definetely a Hall triple in the 1990s. With hard plastic seats. Spent way too much time on this lift and on the race hill. Lift broke down numerous times, so we would just walk back to the lodge.
