Very nice. That seems like a really large track rope gauge.

I saw this video posted on the Colorado ski history forums. Apparently Monarch replaced the drive terminal on the Garfield lift (hall). Perhaps in reaction to the Devil's Head debacle last season? Anyone know what terminal it is? It is for sure doppelmayr CTEC but which one.

Breezeway has the same type of Hall drive unit as Garfield, although that could be a project for next summer.

Doppel-TEC - NOT.
It's actually one of the first from Sky Trac.

Well that explains why I did not recognize the terminal design. Who is this Sky Trac?

Former employees of CTEC. They also built the unique funicular/incline in Utah (not cable propelled).

Could this be another new Doppelmayr CTEC design? Doesn't look quite like the Uni-Star drive tension.

I don't see a difference, although I'm usually more concerned with what's inside than out.

It's looks like a Galaxy terminal... like ours.

The new Doppelmayr eco double isn't on the new map. Do you know if it will be open to the public or just the homeowners/renters?

Officially its only for the homeowners. It'll be staffed by Loon Lifties but will they have to check i.d.s versus a guest list? Sounds a bit excessive to me. What do other resorts who run homeowner only lifts do?

Stopped by Mittersill today. I also saw the drive bull-wheel and chairs. It looks like they're waiting for delivery of the drive machinery.
