Good Pics, but,,, can you edit them so they are turne dinto the right poistions to view,, my neck now has kinks in it from turning every which way to view the pics.

just save them and flip them in Microsoft Picture Viewer

pretty impressive, the K-Max

There are more pictures of the tunnel and the new lift at Snowbird.

the K-max is an amazing machine made in my home state.

It won't be long until Mt. Bachelor starts taking down Pine Marten Express. It looks like the process has already begun.

yeah....looks like that cat moved a lot of snow around

Stopped by snowmass yesterday here are some pics.

Was Funnel still standing when you were there Vons?

Funnel is gone you can see about as much of it that is left on site in the picture. Assy hill still has its rope and the chairs are neatly stacked at the bottom but the lift shack has been removed. Any one know what is going to happen to The Assy hill lift? from what I could see it is in great shape for 37 years old.

Are they planning on removing Naked Lady lift also?? The "Renassance of Snowmass" section on their website calls for it this Summer, however, maybe there is not enough time or maybe they are leaving it until they have a place to reinstall it at one of the other mountains or sell to anther area. Naked Lady likely does not have many hours on it since it was installed in 1981 and only ran full time up until 1993 when Alpine Springs HSQ went in which took away the need to open Naked Lady chair except for extremely crowded days which are fairly rare at Snowmass.

I have not heard much about naked lady but I had heard that it has not even been certified for the last few years so I dont know if they would even bother reinstalling it.

It was certified last season because I used it once on a busy day.

Chair 3, Mt Baker's last Murray-Latta, is going down to make way for a new CTEC quad (photo credit to Zop, Baker's lift manager)

Is the quad going to run the same liftline?
