I thought I'd give y'all a preview of some new pages that will go online over the holiday season. the lift locations page (which currently is in a state of disrepair) will look similar.

Brad- are you listing surface lifts as well as aerial lifts? Just checking, sinve we've got 23 lifts total. Of course, four of those are carpets, so most of us don't count them anyway... :---: Strong work on the research.

eventually i would like to include all but it seems that resorts install/remove magic carpets on a yearly basis, so with the exception of a few resorts just actual lifts, pomas, and tbars are included

here is the locations page, which is still being finished

there still are a few formatting error and a lift at eldora is mis-labeled but it should be done and correct in the next week or so

I think the only way that Hesperus will open again is with new ownership. I doubt the current owner wants to take a loss on the area and that's probably the reason why it's for sale.

I was looking at some history about eldora and found that there was once a t-bar that ran the EZ line. Does anyone know if this T-Bar was in operation up until the EZ was installed?
