Ghost Town's lift will actually be removed and replaced w/ a new lift in the next few months. A group of investors has purchased the park and plan to re-open it this coming May.

you also forgot to add the high meadows ski area as a lost resort.....it was located on the golf course at High Meadows inn and country club in roaring gap/sparta nc

There is also a lift at Twitsee Theme Park, a 1973 Goforth Double that brings people to miners mountain.
Also, Did you know that it is a 20 minute lift ride to the top of the Yellow Double, and that the two longest lifts in NC are at Sugar? Their is also a lift in a Theme Park on the Outer Banks.
