the fist two pics are of the new "phoenix lift" under construction
the second two are of the double that goes to the top of the mountain
after that is 2 pics of the tubing tows
the final 4 are of the triple that goes to the top of the mountain. Fact: the chairs on the triple are the old chairs off the bear mountain quad (originally a triple)

I hate to say it but Magic looks GHETTO.

A lot of work has to be done to make that place more attractive.

Well the new owner just took control, and only has had time to repaint all towers and terminals and redo the lodge. Since these photos were taken, the Phoenix lift has been repainted black and renamed Green chair. I have a feeling next summer will see some bigger upgrades.

The Black chair with the Yan chairs is the only Pohlig lift in North America. I believe Pohlig became part of PHB which became PHB Hall which became part of the Doppelmayr Garaventa group.

Any idea of what the original Pohlig carriers looked like on that lift before the yans?
