The only time period where the lift was not in use was between 2001 and 2005. The Herberts (because of their passion for the mountain) still performed enough maintenance on the mountain (and this lift) during this time period so that whomever bought it from them had operational infrastructure.

This is listed as having 74 chairs, but I was there for the first time yesterday, and the chair numbers went up to 100 (a red(ish) painted chair), and then started back at chair 1.

Love the early Poma designs. Sadly they’re slowly disappearing :(
