Do to the fact that I'm on dial up and it appears that you use some WYSIWYG editor; I think Frontpage, not all of the images load in the given amount of time I have to complete the transfer. I also can't right click on the images eitehr to reload them. :(

No snow. That's HIGHLY unusual for this time of year!

I'm more and more thankful for the 110cm's we have!

The T-Bar is 100% Doppelmayr.

Yes, the T-Bar is a Doppelmayr - with IW or IWN springboxes. Looks like it has a HUGE counterweight - unless that's part of the structure. Handle tow looks like a Harusch or mitey mite.

Thanks, yes it does have a large looking counterweight, I was wondering about that, never looked closely at it though. :)

Heres the pictures of the Orange Chair. Lots of grip pictures as some of the chairs were off the line and i thought some pictures of Murray Latta grips would be good. These will be on my website with full resolution soon.

About the file names saying Red Chair i keep thinking that Orange Chair is actually called Red Chair although it isnt.

Nice photos. I wish I had taken more of chairs 3 and 4 while I was at Baker but at least someone's got Murray-Latta pics now.

The ML grips are almost identical to later Heron's, so are the bail chair designs. I wonder if ML pirchased parts from poma-heron.

Nope. The idea is similar, but if you can find a good photo of both you'll see they're not the same. The most unique thing about M-L's grip is that the machinists forged the rope structure into the grip body. That way, there would be no slippage. The inside of the M-L grip basically is a mold of the rope, valleys and all.
