This was the first lift ever built with Doppelmayr CTEC’s Uni-GS terminal.Riding up the line in a winter without much snow.Upper lift line.Looking back down the line.Top terminal.Bottom station.Another view of the base terminal.View back down the line.
Seeing as this was the first ever UNI-GS, it is understandable that the design is different from most, but any idea how many were built without those corner windows on the front and back?
Seems like when jan leonard left they discontinued it but I may be wrong. I am not the biggest fan of how Doppelmayer homogenizes all of its designs, its just boring.
Vertical is more like 1,300 to 1,400ft, a few years ago Gunstock got exposed on a local newspaper for exaggerating their vertical and changed it to 1,400ft on their website https://www.laconiadailysun.com/opinion/letters/if-gunstock-is-lying-about-it-height-what-else-is/article_17af904c-ae4a-5c7a-93c5-ce5145c5e5a6.html

Y’all remember the super funky cantilevered tower on the old summit triple?

Looking at the terminal, the mast is much different, and there is a database sign on it. Did this lift originally have 90-degree loading?

It’s always been in-line loading, judging from older pictures.

Whatever happened to the UNI-GS terminal? Where is the last one built?
