I think this has become the tree_skier and trailboss thread!

I can't find the name of it, but it was the T-Bar on the southern end of the mountain.

OOOOO . .. i got one that i bet Bob will get.

I get really mad when Bob beats through the course. I wear old school Spyper race pants. I was the ringer on the AZ race team. I am really good at chairlift riddles. I hate to pay to ski. Who am I? ;-)

I was a double chair installed in 1962 and was 6,600' long. A base lodge was also built right below me that same year. I was later replaced with a HSQ lift.

What was my name?

The slope was at Ascutney ...west slope. Not been following this thread. Snow making moved to the top of the mountain on then 5th ave. I use to beat Dave in Ski races there before I even knew him........ not. Ow the cheap skier would be the one and only Tree_Skier.

I bankrupted the company that designed me. I was installed as part of a $50 million dollar expansion.

Who am I?

Bob, It's always nice to have fantasies


It was the west slope T-bar. The other 2 t-bars were the main slope and little eagle aka chicken hill, both of which were electric.

Little eagle was going to be my question, but I wanted to see your response before I posted a question.
Calling it Chicken hill makes you old Dave.
The face of main took to 2 pair of my skies in the early 70's. Dave Raced with the likes of Tiger Shaw and I raced against Doug Lewis. Again showing he is old and yes still cheap.
Ya I'm just jealous casue he lives at a mountain and I have to drive. He might live closer just to save on gas though.

I drive a civic to save on gas. I live close to the mountain for the kids and so I can get out of bed at 6:30, eat breakfast, make lunches get the kids up and ready and be at the hill at 7:30

I need to point something out. In the first riddle, the very first picture of the thread, there are 2 people in chair 34. Now, either A. The kid is teaching his gf the finer science to EZ-Wider's or B. Prooving he is black below the waist to pick up a random girl on the lift.

I'm leaning towards A. Don't you just love when you accidentally realize you caught someone as the last moment they want to be on film.

Another Hint: (probably will give it away)

The company that went bankrupt building me (Carlevaro And Savio) was taken over by another company (Agudio) that was also not able to finish building me.
