The pulse, one of the most pointless things ever

Over the turn, it runs about 1 m/s or less, and its so cool that both sets dont enter at the same time. That means its going really slow TWICE! Isnt that the greatest idea ever!

the panorama pulse enters the stations rather off set and at the upper station the cabins are well out of the station be fore it speeds up

thats how squaw's is as well, the turn just really messes it up.

The massive bottom terminal for the tram.

I dunno how most trams are, but the one at squaw is both driven and tensioned in the same terminal. Anyone know how it works like that?

Nice shots, Zack :) Olympic Lady's drive terminal looks like old I-lift at Copper, or so I've heard. Now it has hydraulic tensioning in its new incarnation.

[SkiBachelor]

I have them somewhere on my computer, I will look later. CAski took the pictures this summer while he was at squaw.

[Whistler]

thank you so much!

[SkiBachelor]

Crap, I can't find them now. I hope CAski has them still. :(

[Kicking Horse]

[KZ]

Skibachelor: What pictures are you looking for? I have but one pic of the Pulse, and it is of the bend from a distance. There are no cabins in that one. But if you want any of the pictures, for the forum or for the listings of all the Northwest lifts, I can find them on my computer... I'm a real packrat.

[SkiBachelor]

That would be cool. I was just trying to find the picture you posted of the portal on siberia express.
