I’ve skied at Lutsen for40 years, and Bridge Chair has been there the entire time. I can’t argue with Lutsen’s plans to expand, but the must do something with Bridge. A high speed quad would fit there nicely.

I agree with the detachable replacement but a bridge lift replacement is more important right now.

I think Bridge and Ullr would be priorities over Timberwolf. If they have the money, they probably would replace all three.

Timberwolf would be the last lift to get replaced, as most skiers just ski down to the 6 pack detach.

I agree, when they do expand hopefully the longer of the new lifts are built as detachables.
