Well Snow King is in the city of Jackson. The two ski areas are like 5 miles apart or something.

Judging by the names on the trail sign, I would say that that is the Blackfoot lift at Grand Targhee.

alright. Sorry about saying its the wrong resort

Check out these Riblet towers. I wonder why Riblet stopped making them. Hey Bill this is the lift that the Pucci triple replaced. Remember the terminal foundation you found there. :)

I know you guys are going to hate me for this but, Riblet towers are the ugliest thing I have ever seen. :help:

Maybe not the ugliest, but pretty close.

that circular bar on the towers makes them look weird in my opinion

The circular bar is on a lot of them, if not all. I agree, they are ugly, but only because of that curved bar.

Well that bar can only be found on the double chairs.

ah.

i could see its use on lifts with high crosswinds but what else is it good for?

I don't know, I think it was a safety issue probably back in the day because they didn't want to have a chair hit a tower plus i think the older style double chairs were kind of bouncy.

Not much. And even with crosswinds, it doesn't seem to hit the bar

Check out all the lifts at this mountain. Theres like 8 lifts that end here.

Another shot.

Nice.

Thats a lot of gondolas

in europe of course

They may be ugly, but i like them. When all towers these days are just tubes, these are slightly different. They are like a blast from the past

Here is the top terminal of the pulse cabriolet @ panorama
