Something is obviously wrong with these two photos. In one, it's more obvious than the other:

The fact that the lines look like Utah not Colorado? On another note, I seeing a missing map on one of the bars in the lower photo.

No, you're not looking in the right place. The fact that there's a safety bar map missing from chair 115 in the Peak 8 SuperConnect is not what you're looking for. That is not Photoshopped - when the original photo was taken, the map had been taken off the safety bar for whatever reason (I saw said map returned to that chair later in the year).

Is it the extra distance from the ground to the terminal access ladder? A brick is a poor solution for an extra step. Why did the manufacture of this lift not secure this ladder to a foundation or extend it closer to the ground for better access all year?

The top picture has it's shed doors open, we know that is a major no no at Breckenridge and in the bottom picture the chair departing the terminal hasn't lowered their safety bar, if only they knew they're about to fall due to their lack of safety.

Try looking at the Peak 8 SuperConnect terminal siding. Something about how the terminal has been painted looks wrong.

It doesn't look like the siding has been painted. It looks like the added the Snowflake on a piece of new siding and didn't line up the ribs.

Actually, this is what the lift would look like at a place like Arendelle Ski Resort (it's what this resort's called in some alternative universe).

For reference, here's the unedited photo. The snowflake and bit of photoshopped siding hide the actual Breckenridge 'B' that is there:

First photo's like the second one: look at the place o the left of the lift name plate on the Mercury SuperChair. A snowflake has replaced the Breckenridge 'B' there.

Donald, nobody cares about your poor Photoshopping ability or your fantasy alternate universe snow world.
