Interests:yo, my name is Christian, and I live in the San Francisco Bay Area (Berkeley ....sort of) skiing is what I do best, and I love the mountains. Of course I love skilifts too, which is why I'm here. I'd like to learn more about them and maybe work in the Ski industry later on in life.<br /><br />Let it snow.

Wow thats somewhat of a tainted history.

Is there only one car that goes up and down, or is it a regular jigback tram?

It is a regular jig back tram although its really cool because on the first stage the old pulse gondola is still up although not working. When I was in Chamoix I road up the Mont Blanc trams and it was a blast although one thing suprised me because at the bottom there was this old Yan (I think please correct me if I'm wrong) tram car sitting there. Anyone know if this is just an older tram that the new one replaced?
