Here are some pictures I took but wasn't able to put up until now due to technacal difficulties. BTW Cameron I'll email you them if you want.


This is the lift I learned to ski on unforentually they don't ever use it anymore although they keep the papers up on it so they could if they needed to.

This is the top of Eagle Express the only Von Roll CTEC i've ever seen and the only high speeder at Solitude. IT was also the first high speed lift i ever went on.

That transfer tow is truly a unique lift. Yes, it does have Yan's fixed D or T grip.
Solitude's Summit lift- CTEC or Thiokol? Either way, it's the only centre-pole lift of those brands I've seen.
