Ok, here are a few.

Alpine and Bonanza in operation.

Bonanza............

This is I believe Bonanza during installation. I also think that is Ray tanner standing up top. I did the close up to show you the kind of quality I can do on my zooms. I actually did a shrink job on that crop after it was done. This scanner does a very nice job for me! FYI, it is a Cannon CS 8800f and was less then $200.

Again, thanks so much for doing this, it's really neat to see how it used to look. It seems Bonanza started where they like to park the snow cats that cut the pipe nowadays. And didn't Alpine use to have a roof for the lower bullwheel? Your scanner gets great detail.

I rode Bonanza before it was removed, and I think it was pretty close to the Central Express liftline. Perhaps it was a bit further East

It started a little more east but ended the same place. I've seen the old towers where they cut them off.

Are there anymore? Or is this it until the website is put up?

There is a LOT more.....here is an airplane view of Ski Acres from the 1950s I believe and a zoom-in of the lodge area where you can see the Gallery poma, some rope tows and the Single Chair Lift.

I just started doing the re-size and posting on the net using Flikr. I haven't put the lift construction pic's online yet. I have well over 100 photo's and so far have 34 posted here. I'll try to add more tonight and also will upload some construction photo's.

Awsome pics, perhaps we can now update the snoqualmie lift page with these. Where did the T-bar run?
