Hi guys, just got back from a trip to the US, while we were there i got about 90 lift pics of Mt Baker, every lift has at least a picture of it. Ive still got to download them to my computer. I think i will simply put these on my website and save space for other things on the forum. Hope to have them up soon. Stay Tuned.

Once up on your site, can I snag them for our website?

Sure, i was offerin that to SkiBachelor before the trip, it just would be great if you credited me (WBSKI) for them and put my url www.get-me.to/ski in the links section of the site. Hope thats not asking to much!

On the first day after we had gone to Heather Meadows i accidentaly reformatted the memory card. Plus there was a rainstorm halfway through my lift tour. We went up the next day and got tonnes of pics, there was a lift mec up there replacing the grips i think. Ive downloaded them now.

Update, Ive made 10 pages for the pictures now and the pages have the pictures on them. I have also uploaded full size images to my free host. NO! I just checked my host and im out of space, if someone could host my page for free that would be kind. I just need to host 5-10 mb of data on something else so that i can put this page on my free host which then i can link to the full size images.

Im looking into finding another host to put other stuff on in the meantime.

Well I think that a lot of the images that you have on your site are way too big in file size and you could lower the quailty of them and that would give you a lot more space.

Did you get a guided tour, or just walk around? I imagine Zop would have given you a tour, he's pretty bored this summer with new lifts not causing problems and no huge items on his list.
Which lift was the clip moving taking place on- chair 1 or 2? I've spent a fair bit of time on both doing exactly that, and I can tell you that the guy you saw was probably bored out of his gourd...

Nope i just walked around the lifts. was he doing lift mainenaince at white salmon base? how exactly do you get a tour anyways?

Ok guys, i finally finished the page after multiple technical problems. It can be found in Mountain Info>Mt Baker>Photos

There is full res pics if you click on the picture.

Nice photos. I'm in a couple of them, so to speak. The green snowcat in the photos of chair 2- I rebuilt that one, painted it, and operated it quite a bit. I designed and printed several of the documents in the shack at chair 3's drive terminal. I painted all of the lift numbers, and cut out a few of them when I found the old ones were rotten. And I spent a week at the cross tower on chairs 1 and 2, tweaking the asssembly and wiring in the derail circuits.
