The reason why the Dreamcatcher lift has the old CTEC carriers is probably because they're from the Red Hawk/Sun Rise lift before it was converted to a double.

For those who think they are having a bad winter so far, check out nubs nob. The south west winds we have been getting in the lower peninsula really blow (pun intended).

Since someone already got this in the trivia section, here is the New Quad at Buck Hill, MN. That thing was really comfortable! Smooth ride. :biggrin:

Look at the span on this gondola. And it is a monocable too.

I got to take my first rides on a true European spring box style T-bar. The Tomahawk T-bar at Indianhead. Here are some pics of it. I think the bottom station is the most interesting part of the lift.

Reminds me of The Canyons. Just that tower's a bit bigger, though.
