Triple Chairlift Project

For the third year in a row, we have invested into a large chairlift improvement project. In addition to new motor project on our #1 quad lift, we are also hoping to begin a big project with our Triple Chair on the east side.  I say "hoping" because continued supply chain issues have delayed the delivery of post of the equipment & parts needed for this project. 

Basically, what we are doing are installing new 2-part chair hangers themselves as well as adding restraining bars to the chairs. That will mean that every lift at Welch Village will have restraining bars. We are also slowing the lift speed a bit and removing a few chairs from the line.  That should mean easier loading and a better overall experience using the chairlift for guests. 

All parts and equipment were ordered last spring about the time we closed.  We were told that they would arrive in October.  Some did.  We are still waiting for some parts and we are hoping this project will be done in time for the holidays. Thank you for continued patience as we improve this important chairlift.
