I believe Hunter Mountains E-Lift was built in 1968, which would mean this is E-lift's 40th anniversary. Can anyone from Hunter Mountain verify this?

E-lift is a HALL double lift with original chairs.

Photos of the old Hunter HALL double E-lift can be viewed here:

I seem to recall seeing that on the plate there. I love the building that you load in from...

Skilifts.org seems to back it up. 1968 Chairlift Construction list...Hall Double 418ft vertical drop. Sounds about right for the E.

You are right. We love E lift.
Thanks 180

Yes here is the 1968 link for new Lift Installations

Happy Birthday E Lift

Go back in time and take a ride on the old E-Lift in the Hunter One area.
