Tower Foundation for the one big depression tower in the middle. I also took pictures of the Summit House remodel project which is progressing quite nicely. If anyone would like to see pics, I can post them. Quicksilver is also getting a new haul rope, the chairs are off and the new Fatzer rope is in place to be installed.

I would like to see the pics of the summit house. Why are they fixing Quicksilver, they never use it it seems like?

[Peter]

It just needs a new haul rope, I think it is every 7-10 years that they have to be replaced.

Summit House and Quicksilver...

So that's what it looks like. I'm supposed to start tearing the terminal apart in two days and believe it or not that's the first image I've seen of it. It'll be fun, all right.

Which terminal is that headed to? Or is there another one coming too?

This BW is going to the top of O-1 at copper, its going to be a big job. Unfortunate that the terminal just got repainted tearing it up is not going to preserve the orange crush color well. The old wheel, though code allows for the repair of cracks, has been fixed more times than I can count and needs this replacement. John are you all doing the return BW at S this summer Too?

[Peter]

I used a portable GPS yesterday to plot the locations of all the Northway towers and then put them in Google Earth to make my own not-very-accurate line profile. The last 3; towers 17, 18, and 19 are not yet marked. I think those three are all breackover towers at the top.

Is this the longest chair at Crystal?

[Peter]

Yes, and nearly the longest in Washington as a whole. It does have the most vertical in the state.

[Snoqualmie guy]

Does anyone know what the secand longest is? I know the triple on the bunny hill is the shortest, whos name leaves me.

WBSKI has posted some excellent photos of Silverlode at Red.... http://www.v4.skiing....php?photoid=82

Allan, you said before that the drive station was going to be Galaxy, but that motor room does not look to me to be like the Galaxy of the past? Do you know anything about that?

Construction at Revelstoke...
Mostly Chair 12...18 of 23 towers will be rock anchors.
