    Any word yet on where the terminals from this lift will go?

      I would think they would want to reuse the terminals as they seem in great shape, just add new towers, line, and chairs.

        At that point it would be worth getting a new lift. I could be wrong, but the terminals were sold alone.

          The terminals were once for sale on a classified site but never sold. They are being retained by Saddleback for possible future use on a replacement Sandy or elsewhere.

      Yeah, I was going to mention that too. There is no way this is over a mile long.

        4,550 feet is more like 0.86 miles.
