    I hate the flat L-P footrests.. Would rather have none.

      The Multix footrests are standard issue now on all LPA lifts. Have been since 2008. Breck has four superchairs with them, Keystone and Vail three, Copper two, Arapahoe Basin one, Aspen Snowmass three.

        And they are very annoying if your legs and skis aren’t the exact right profile.

    In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful LPAs in one of the most beautiful places. Great job with the photography, Peter!
