Sorry, tried to attach but nothing happened. I've got some cool pictures but the attachment instructions are too vague.

Couple of photos of the Kadenwood terminals. Long way to go on this yet, but as it's in the valley it shouldn't be a problem.

Old school. Whenever we set towers without a heli someone would always say "Whop Whop Whop" so it seemed like there was a chopper.... :ohmy:

Had I known Loon was putting in a new lift I would have stopped by and taken some pictures. I drove by the other day.

Not much has changed since Skier took his pictures. The concrete is done but the only steel on site are the bull-wheels. Things should start happening the end of the month. Doppelmayr has been working up at Cannon lately.

I'm surprised Shawnee imported a European terminal. It seems like only something a place like Beaver Creek would do because those Vail resorts like to have everything fancy

Shawnee's lift looks to be a hybrid of the G and GS. uni-g skin with gs guts

BTW the lift was most likely built in St. Jerome and SLC with only grips,gearbox and some sheet metal skin parts coming from Europe

CAD drawings are cheeper to transport than steel
