I was looking through some of my old photos and thought, why not post a couple as trivia. Guess what lift and where for the first two. As a special bonus, guess who's inside the costume in the third picture...

I can identify the first photo as being the defunct Highline lift in a dry year.

You are correct, it's the old Highline, and the Devil's Fiddle, which was apparently removed two years ago. Not much of a loss, they never ran it anyway, it was kinda cool though because it had all original Yan equipment as far as I could tell. Last picture though, the guy inside that suit isn's paid nearly well enough for wearing that thing.

A friend skied Killington last week and he mentioned the top of Devil's Fiddle is still in place. Killington has a collection of defunct Yan-Box drive terminals. They could start a museum or maybe the [url="http://www.shelburnemuseum.org/buildings_and_grounds/index.php"]Shelburne Museum[/url] near Burlington could add one to their collection.
