This lift is a rare Canadian Hall other than what looks like a Blue Mountain motor room.Loading area.Triple chairs.Counterweight.Fixed top bullwheel.View from the summit.Top terminal.Lower lift line.Upper lift line.Short but steep lift line.
No snow making pipes seen in the photos. This area of Quebec historically gets a lot of natural snow. I wonder how they will do in the next twenty years as global warming trends towards bringing Quebec more freezing rain, more often, in between the great cold snow storms they have historically benefited from.
This terminal model was also on the triple chair at the former Crystal Mountain ski resort in British Columbia (relocated from Europe in the mid-2000s). The difference is that it’s all closed in.
It appears that Blue Mountain Lifts did some work on this machine, seeing as it has at least two BM sheave trains on the uphill side of the breakover, plus the motor room.
