For the new members here are the general load themes that must be adjusted for seasonal changes in this application.
Red is negative at the bullwheel (hence two hold-down sheaves)
Blue is positive (a single sheave held by 3 bolts in tension)
Green is neutral or “0” degree cord change in rope angle.

Boyne Mt added some press fit sheaves to the alpine lift top terminal. I wonder why?
New terminal roof on disciples ridge. Others were painted to match.
Boyne highlands opening day. Looks like fun. I was on my mtn bike which the conditions were much better for.

A company that operates a ski resort in Japan regularly uses its chairlift to dry sheaves of rice.
TheIshiuchi-Maruyama Resort trademarked the name "Sky Rice" (tenku-mai) for the Koshihikari rice harvested in Minami-Uonuma, Niigata Prefecture.
An employee of Japan Lift Service, which runs the resort, suggested the idea. The employee grew up farming rice before joining the company. JLS started the sun-dried rice-on-a-lift idea in 2004.
Hanging rice to dry rather than using a combine harvester results in a moister rice grain with a distinct flavor. The 800 meter ski lift goes into normal use when the Ishiuchi ski season begins in the middle of December.

Yeah.
If that is the tower ladder in the picture, then it appears it might be a hard climb.
