      Ah, that explains why it didn’t run last weekend. My friend is going this Saturday, what are the odds it’ll be fixed by then?

        Weird, looking through my account I can’t find it either, I’ll dig through my camera roll and try to find it.

    High but I don’t think they’ll open it until maybe an inspection of the entire lift, I taped two people getting roped off, it’s posted on my Instagram.

    Looks like they’re gonna have this lift up and running for 2020-21, it apparently got control and drive upgrades from Green Mountain Controls so it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere soon (Good news for me at least, I love 60s Riblets)

    I wonder why they opted for such a long tension carraige on such a short lift
