This lift hasnt carried guests at all this season, unlikely that it will spin with just 2 weeks left in the season.
Here is their last update in early February: Following our most recent inspection, we’ve received a detailed list of required adjustments that need to be completed before the next inspection can be scheduled. While we had been working toward a mid-February reopening, safety and regulatory standards will always come first. Our team is actively working through these items and coordinating next steps. At this time, we don’t have an updated timeline to share, but we’ll continue to provide updates as progress continues. We know how much this chair means to our community, and we truly appreciate your patience, your support, and your care for this mountain.
A nice way of saying they failed the TSBC inspection. They are neccesarily thorough, they learned from Whistler Creekside three decades ago that the operators cannot always be trusted to keep their lifts in safe working order.

I have a feeling, this lift will be replaced with a used Dopp High speed quad, originally planned for the replacement of skyline.
