New Lifts 2016

liftmech's Photo liftmech 15 Jun 2016

Seems I can't post a photo, which as an administrator is slightly embarrassing. Be that as it may, we built a carpet long enough to require a counterweight. It's kinda cool.

Is it not letting you or did you forget? What I do is go in 'Use Full Editor' and then scroll down to the choose file thingy, then browse for the image / file you want to upload and it should work. Or you can upload to an image site (mine of choice is imgur, which sadly can't be used on this type of forum) and copy in the image to the post. However, it might not be that way if you are on a mobile device or something. I always browse on a computer.

What about the new proposed lifts at Loon, NH? I heard that two new Doppelmayr quads were to be installed in 2017 at South Peak.

I use full editor as well. Not sure what was going on.

There is no time line for those new lifts on South Peak and no manufacturer has been picked either. The plan was approved by the USFS, thats all. Don't expect any major changes until the CNL ownership changes are resolved.

Skytrac has some pictures up of the Cal expo/ California state fair sky ride project completed last month. The lift was built to reuse LE foundations from the previous lift and features a economy enclosure.
