Expand The supply chain is screwed up, Jim Daly probably forgot to fax the purchase order back so things are delayed. Worst case we have this new lift for 2023-24 season. We all spend 99% of the time on the quad and six pack anyway. Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted July 29, 2022 Report Posted July 29, 2022 I’m Gonna be skiing Widowmaker a lot this season. I wonder if they change any trail names this season. Quote
JFskiDan Posted July 29, 2022 Report Posted July 29, 2022 Been watching a few other resorts installing lifts. Sunday river recently posted a pic of concrete going in for the summit terminal as well, so it would appear they are on pace with Blue, without knowing the status of tower footings. i would think they need to be hitting the concrete pretty hard over the next 2 weeks. We have had issues with concrete this year, so Blue might be too, but its a size-able job, so it probably puts them pretty high on the suppliers list. 4 Quote
