They are not YELLOW or ORANGE, they are non metallic COPPER. Lift Mech can probably tell you what color the order.

The 3rd pic in the first post is Mountain Chief in Copper Bowl.

That is Mountain Chief. It services the back bowls of Copper Mountain, and was built in 1977 where the current Timberline Express runs. The lift was relocated in 1995 to its current position. The chairs are supposed to be orange (close enough to copper colored). The chairs indeed need a new coat of paint, along with the towers, as they have faded. Like I said earlier, Alpine lift just got new paint this past summer, along with the Falcon and the Eagle. Next summer might be the lifts in the back bowls, as Blackjack also could use some new paint!

First, we still have a lot of snow. Second, is this worse than the standard '666', especially as my sled is also #6? Third, I though schols were supposed to be drug-free zones? Apparently JeffCo has the Magic Bus in its fleet, dude.

On the 666 theme... I put a new hour meter in the T-Bar in the 06/07 winter. I was relieving the night operators this year and the stupid lift stopped itself @ 666 hours.

You guys do have a lot of snow. Not us!

Is that park features halfway up the hill? Allen, was this a low snow year or does the snow always melt this fast?

Yah those rails came from the park on the t-bar. Snow always melts this fast here!
