That is nice as well. It's kind of weird to see only one detachable on the list, since we are used to more detachable installations then there were in 1981.

Isn't it odd that "politics" is made up of the word "poli" meaning many, and "tics" meaning blood-sucking creatures?

BTW, some of the dates on the main page regarding when the installation pages went in are wrong.

if you look on the main page of skilifts.org, it says that the 1987 installation sheet was added on February 3, the 1986 added in February 4, and the 1981 on January 6.

Now I know why you wanted to know about Badger Pass! Thanks for putting the work into this, I know stuff like this can be time consuming.

Argh! Stocks was installed in '81. All along I thought it was 6 years older. Blah.

I just finished the the 1985 lift construction survey.

http://skilifts.org/install_na1985.htm

However, I'm starting to run into errors and I'm debating whether to list them or not. Errors such as the Bell mountain lift at Aspen Mountain which is actually just a relocated lift and not a new installation.

Anyway, the 1973 lift installation survey will be the next one I post.

Very nice. I think that the note you put at the bottom should suffice. Also, the Bell Mountain link does not work, and the Falcon Superchair for Breck links to the American Flyer at Copper, not the Falcon.

Thanks, those should be the only errors on the page. I'm deciding if I should add notes to the lifts that can/ were converted to high-speed quads later.

I will post the 1984 lift installation survey when I get the SAMs from that year. The same goes for the other lift construction surveys.

The Prospector at Dodge Ridge leads to an error page, and the Shirley Lake Express at Squaw Valley is in the wrong year, according to the lift page it says it was installed in 1986. The link on the installstion page leads to the Siberia Express, which was installed in 1985.

Mayflower?

By the way, the news of the updated installation sheet has not been put on the "site updates" bar at the bottom of the page.

Yea, I know. The reason for that is because I had a final today and since the lift install sheet was pretty much finished, I just made the necessary changes to get it up.

I also have to write a brief thing up about the new classified section on the site so that's another things.

Mayflower is a chairlift at DV.

Um...On the 1985 Installation sheet, It says that Sunshine Village got a Muller double. It is called "Tee Pee Town". Also, Nakiska ski area was built for the Calgary, Alberta Olympics, and does it really take three years to install a lift? One last question. When did Cold Lake, Alberta get a lift by Doppelmayr?
