Our two new lifts are ready for action!! Moonbeam Express (pictured below) and Apex Express passed their load test, gaining the stamp of approval for Opening Day. Doppelmayr/CTEC did a great job getting two new lifts ready well in advance of opening day, literally starting and finishing the job with snow on the ground, dating back to last April removing old towers. Stay tuned to our website for news on Opening Day, which is slated for November 14 as of right now.
These two lifts are both high-speed quads, featuring a sub-four minute ride up the hill. A nice new surprise once you get up on the hill is the terrain grading we did near the top-station of both lifts, which will make for much more fluid runs.
 Check the photo from today - you might notice right now we are testing just how much snow can fall on the bottom station!!
