It sure looks different seeing the lift without any big flyovers on the light side.

Why replace if it has same speed and capacity? Was the old lift unreliable?

Was kept a double to maintain character. Old lift was getting old so they decided it was time.
Quite similar to Castlerock at Sugarbush in that way..
