Let's see-- you're riding chair 4, I see C and D in the background, and that's not actually a lift you're pointing at, but rather the Patrol's evac practise setup. Horse-- I think this one might be an original, or it hasn't been done in quite while.

The question is, "What lift line does the patrol evace training area sit on?"

I mean, I suppose it is part of old D. Though I assume they changed the alignment a little for patrol evac, because there's no line visible.

I should probably use proper names like the trail map does. D is now Beaver Run. They left two or three (can't remember offhand) towers of old D up and anchored the line at both ends, then hung up every variety of chair they currently had for practise. The towers were left in place, not moved. When D was replaced the alignment of the new lift was changed slightly to allow it to go further up the hill (it used to end below the current top of C).
