A lot of hall lift controls have been upgraded by CTEC. The old Sunrise Double At Ascutney was upgraded, and I believe Bolton Valley’s doubles may have also.
Makes me wonder…does anyone know of a hall lift with original controls? All the ones I have ridden have either been upgraded in-house (ex. Smuggs) , by CTEC, or by GMCS.
Honestly, I think seasons should be removed in place of a lift ending at where tumbleweed used to. This chair is super redundant considering that has a short line with little terrain (one run) and an out of the way loading area. Tumbleweed provided a much better unload spot (It could take you to the main base) and was a much better step up for beginner skiers. In my opinion, this chairlift is useless and needs to get taken out or replaced (with extensions) immediately.
It also stands out as the only bottom drive lift at Mount Snow.

I have not seen this lift operate in a long time, not that it really needs to with Tumbleweed being a much better lift and right next door.

They are getting a high-speed-6 going up in that area so they will probably remove this lift
