Not this summer. Forest Service needs to approve it first.

I think Summer 2015 is a good bet on this. From what I hear from my sources, there has been no opposition from anyone. The city is fully behind it, with plans to make it part of the transit system, and take some of the Silver Lake buses offline once the gondola goes in. The Huntsman family, which owns a large parcel of land sitting directly between Main Street and Silver Lake, has offered up a piece of the property for an angle/mid station. But the alignment is very tricky, between getting up and out of Main Street and then avoiding all the houses in Silver Lake.

I can't remember what types of chairlifts the master plan called for lifts 2A and 2B to become. My best recollection is either two triples or two fixed grip quads.

The gondi needs help. The operator's white board has notes about four or five cabins with the large windows popping out and several cabins have been tripping faults along the line. Plus, the roof of the Eagle side is beginning to collapse. They've got it stopped with cabins on the line and two are up at the high span. It would be great if some night a wind gust took them off the line and they could use their insurance to replace now. One more season isn't terrible though.

They have been talking about a lift on Peaked above Sac for a long time, as well as a replacement for Blackfoot. They have been going back and forth as to which project will happen first. Up until now, both projects were just hypothetical and far off. I'm exited to see one of my favorite resorts going forward, or at least trying to.

I love Targhee but this is not going to fly. The owner lost both his house and the commercial property he owned in Driggs to foreclosure. Now he wants Teton County to buy and continue to own a chairlift until it has depreciated enough for him to buy it?
