Chairlift n. A transportation system found at most ski areas in which a series of chairs suspended from a cable rapidly conveys anywhere from one to eight skiers from the front of one line to the back of another.

Why so much effort to hide the new cars when they have pictures of them being built? Plus won't these covers be a pain for those working on the new tram?
From Tram-formation website:
So, the cables are ready, the slack carriers are hung. … Now, we’re just waiting for tram-shaped packages to arrive.
Despite being waylaid en route from Europe due to hurricanes, the two tram cars are now officially somewhere between Houston and Jackson Hole.
They will arrive and be hung some time in mid-October.
But, don’t bother coming out with your camera to shoot the shiny new cars; they will be enshrouded before even leaving the truck they came in on.
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort hired Marmot, long-time Teton Village clothing sponsor, to create custom tram slip covers complete with plastic window covers and door zips.
So, the tram cars will be dressed in Marmot suits until their official unveiling on December 19 or 20. Until then, you’ll just have to guess the hue of Cardinal red, the size of the bucking bronco and the sound your boots will make when you step into the car for the first time.

For sure, but actually the covers are going to be ok because of all the rope lube that will be dripping from the track ropes onto the new cars. The covers will also be nice in the future when we do lube the ropes with our drip system off the carriages, it's usually messy
The schedule is for the first car to be put on is next week, probably wednesday, then the next car saturday. There are still 3 Garaventa workers here and Frey AG has 3 people working on the drive system.
