Ok I've been thinkin about my home mountain lab, and heres what I've come up with ( :help: )

I assume you don't know the trail map at lab, its not that big so you should be able to get a general idea in about 1 minute by viewing it here http://labradormtn.com/modules.php?op=modl...=article&sid=17

My idea is sell the t-bar, move the triple chair to the razorback terrain park, and put a partek hi speed quad in where the triple chair was.

Now, I realize that partek operates out of NY, which is where lab is, so that means that the equipment and machinary wouldn't have to travel over sees. Also, since they are just starting detachable lifts, since lab is 'small' they can use it as sort of a prototype, and it would probably be cheaper than a Poma Hi speeder or a ctec (i wish they weren't bought out, theyre my FAV)

Ideas/? :thumbsup:

You may want them to do this, but really it is the managements decision. It sure would take a lot of convincing for this to work the way you want it to. You could tell them your idea, but i doubt they would listen. Just wondering, but when would all this happen?

Well in the newspaper a few years ago they said they were getting a hi speed quad, then it went to a triple, then to a fg quad..who knows

I won't be complaining as soon as I get out of high school and can get a season pass to a better mountain ;)

My solution is to put in a double double with that short a lift it won't matter to much if the lift is HS or FG and doubles are cheap

I still agree with Ryan's post about the FG Quad. Double Double I think is two expensive to run and maintain.

Yeah but the nice thing about a double double is that you don't have to run the other side
