New Dreamcatcher lift at The Canyons. Still has the old CTEC quad chairs





Day Break was painted red this year

The reason why the Dreamcatcher lift has the old CTEC carriers is probably because they're from the Red Hawk/Sun Rise lift before it was converted to a double.

Here is a night shot from last winter at Buck Hill! Sorry for the blurriness.

For those who think they are having a bad winter so far, check out nubs nob. The south west winds we have been getting in the lower peninsula really blow (pun intended).

Since someone already got this in the trivia section, here is the New Quad at Buck Hill, MN. That thing was really comfortable! Smooth ride.

Look at the span on this gondola. And it is a monocable too.

I got to take my first rides on a true European spring box style T-bar. The Tomahawk T-bar at Indianhead. Here are some pics of it. I think the bottom station is the most interesting part of the lift.

Does this one count as a random lift photo?



Can you guys guess where I took this one? :)

It's from an amusement park ride. :)

Reminds me of The Canyons. Just that tower's a bit bigger, though.

heavily lubricated rope it is

Here are some pictures of the Snowmass Gondola.
