Here's the result of a tree on the Granite chair several years back... I've got some better pics at work, I should borrow the album and scan them.

I've posted these here before somewhere...

Wow. That is quite the damage. Was that in thee winter or summer? :stretcher:

Here's some pictures dug out of the records of the Paradise chair was a baby... I didn't want a new topic for it though! And there's a work carrier in one of the pictures so it qualifies as Lift Maintenance photos!

Yes, but Wildcat is prettier! That thing looks naked!! But alas, it is a Thiokol and I love it. And there will probably not be any left after 2015. Is Paradise getting replaced this year Allan?

Nope, it'll be here for a year or two at least....

Is this the same lift in previous years?

I think the Thiokol at Crystal will last longer than 2015 too.

Speaking of Snoqualmie, is the old Dinosaur lift still standing or did they finally put the old gal out of her misery?
