I'd say High Campbell has derailed for the last time. Bring on the upgrade!:fmicon:
Also, do you see what happens when you build jumps in the terrain park? DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS (Larry)?!
Tears shed au Chateau Highmen.
crap...
Holy shit!
Big cycle!
I liked that chair, too. Hope to see the video of this one.
please jk, no triple; the top is clogged as it is. Opt for snow quality over liftline density.Quote:

Thanks for the good times chair 6, Im honored I got the chance to both shred and bump lifts on this classic cascadian chairlift!

Who needs a chair? Just put a drag lift in, or better yet, make 'em earn their turns. Glad no one was hurt.Quote:

Their facebook page says they are putting another double in. Hopefully it will be the same capacity. Whenever someone bitches about the tram at Big Sky only having a 15 person capacity I tell them they are morons.
Do they bomb that slope when the mountain is open? I can't think of a time when they have, but I'm just thinking of how many people that would have killed if there was a big morning lineup on a weekend powder day waiting for it to open.
Great! The tune has changed; good on ya jk.Quote:

RIP 6. A few pictures from the years. Hiking up the throne and then dropping the 15-20 footer through the trees below has always been one of my favorite lines around.

Master Development Plan last update was to replace it with a 4 seater but fewer chairs so as to keep the same number of riders per hour capacity. Heavier chairs = fewer wind holds.

I know it'll be replaced but its still sad. I have lots of good memories skiing from that lift.
Couldn't have said it better myself.Quote:

1)The employee housing vid the Norseman posted

3)camble basin
Does anyone have pics of the crown that took out chair 6?
A couple more good memories of chair 6 laps:
