This older Yan was relocated with some new towers added.Top station and tower 13.Upper section of the line in the trees.A mix of tower designs.Loading area.Lift overview.
I noticed how this lift has a mix of towers with and without lifting frames. The ones without came from the original Beaver Slope Triple. The lift was lengthened when reinstalled as Tumbleweed, so they probably used extra towers from when Sundance was shortened. They must’ve gotten used Yan 70’s style sheaves for those towers to replace the sketchy hubcap sheaves found on Sundance.
This was one of my first chairlifts when I came here for the first time. This lift constantly stops and I don’t like it. With seasons not open it didn’t help the lines on this lift. Glad it’s gone. Where is the lift now?

Check out my video of this lift for several reasons:
-There’s a good fail at the bottom
-This annoying guy wouldn’t let me raise the bar!
