This one hint is probably enough:

I am the only ski area in the state (somewhere in the northeast) that has a chairlift without a safety bar. Name the chairlift too.

How is that possible? Vermont State Law mandates the use of safety bars. Old lift that is grandfathered?

It runs 2 feet off the ground. I do believe the lift is from the 60s, so it might have been grandfathered in.

Close enough. It's the ski baba lift. I wouldn't go far as saying its 2 feet off the ground but yea, it's pretty low.

According to chairlift.org, it was installed in '79

'79, '69, what's the difference


Had a chairlift accident
House of Glass.
No summit access til the mid 60s, but was founded much earlier.

Really? I remember the glass house - and the two serial T-Bars, but I don't remember a chairlift accident. Could you tell me (us) more.

The chair had a rollback. Old mueller double. It was replaced after that. 12 injuries. Not good at all. I've heard locals talk about it. Tragic stuff.

Close but no cigar. Right state but wrong mountains.
