Does any one have old photos of Crystel Mt. ski area or one of the Snoqualmie areas, also Mt. Hood Meadows? Thanks.

Snoqualmie:

Mt Hood Meadows: Hood River Double before it was relocated to Heather Canyon and replaced with a high speed quad

Could you mark where the places are at Crystal? I've only been there once in the winter and many times in the summer.

If there is someone on this site from Stowe, Please go back in the archives and find some of the old photo's from the single chair days. Those shots are great.

Nice pictures. I like the old pics of Crystal, brings back some memories.

Yes and it was capable of being upgraded to a HSQ.

Was it relocated, because is there not a six-pack there now?

Midway was relocated to Loup Loup ski area when Chinook was installed in 1998.

Skier- where did you get the photo of the old Gold Hills T-bar? It was there when I first skied Crystal, but I was pretty little and I don't remember it at all.

I am not sure where on the internet I found them, maybe teachski.com or hyak.net?

So were those chairs on midway transfered over to REX?

No, REXX and Midway were built the same year.

I didn't know that T-bars could be used as chairlifts. How would you not fall backwards?

T-Bars used as chairlifts??? Where did you get that idea?

So from what I can see, Midway runs the current route of Chinook Express? If so, are those towers from midway in use on Chinook Express except with newer sheaves?

The tower tubes were reused, while the everything else is new.
