trackbiker Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Inside word has it that the new lift will be a Doppelmayr CTEC High Speed Quad. (Could be a 6-Pack, but most likely a Quad) But you didn't hear it from me! In either case, 5min. to the top beats 11.5 minutes to the top! Quote
splooshie Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 is it going to in place of the long haul or the iron horse chairs? Quote
method9455 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 A new lift would make me drive up there and buy a ticket to check it out. It would never be my season pass mountain because its so much farther than any of the other ones from me, but I would drive up once or twice a year and buy a ticket like I do now at a handful of places - the snowmaking looks good, the park looks good, throw up a good lift and I'll be there.

Ski Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Niiiiiiice! BTW, I just got done with a quick hour and the conditions are amazing. I skied untracked poe on Boomer from 1 to 2pm...today was actually the first totally dead day, with lots of open spots along the wood fence. Next week's 50+ degrees with edge to edge coverage should be awesome. Quote
Schif Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 is it going to in place of the long haul or the iron horse chairs? If I remember the map correctly, it looked like it would actually go right next to the long haul, not necessarily replace it. Quote
xNick11 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 5 minutes to the top will beat any lift up montage right now haha. Quote

xNick11 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 IF you mean the bunny lift..yes I do ride it every now and then when im to lazy to ski over to the lodge after coming from th North Face...but still that lift is still slow haha. Quote
Ski Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 Nick, have you been drinking before 5pm again? You're gonna end up like Doug... Or are you really doing laps on the bunny hill? Quote

I skied untracked poe on Boomer from 1 to 2pm...today was actually the first totally dead day, with lots of open spots along the wood fence. Next week's 50+ degrees with edge to edge coverage should be awesome. I was working the bottom of that lift today. We took a few runs after work today, everything we hit on northface was in nice condition. Took a run down fast track but the fresh bit of powder ontop of the crusty ice from the last storm didn't please me too much so we left after an hour or two. Also a wall ride will be put up in the park sometime tomorrow. Quote

Ski Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 Drinking before 5:00PM...try noon...The only reason I went with Atomic Jeff to the Booter moiuntain drive-inn Sunday morning was because the beer distributors don't open until 12:00PM on a Sunday... Yeah, but have you ever been drunk for 72 straight hours? I think that was my tip-off for cutting back just a little. Quote
Ski Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Nah, you just pass out a little then wake up and catch up again. Good as new. Quote
