hahaha ROFLMAO - Hunter's Quad keeps breaking and somehow its Belleayre's fault, Gore's fault, the Government's fault and President Obama's fault. Now there is a conspiracy theory. Ok maybe blaming /President Obama is only implied by association with taxes and socialism. Like I said this thread is useless. :puke:

Think maybe you guys could ante up for a snow making system that actually powers more than 10 guns at a time , replace the infrastructure from 1950's, and replace the new high speed quad that doesn't really run on winter days..While your at it could u replace the ancient triple that is prob on its last leg.

Really appreciate any one of those issue resolved.

wow... why the hate?

Hunter is almost 100% open... Wall2Wall... The snowmaking kicks ass..

I'd rather have good snowmaking then a consistant quad...

curious about what manufacturer built the lift. seems the same generation as a number of lifts at k & pico that were rebuilt years ago (superstar, snowshed, summit express). if so, then they've gotten as much as they can out of it and it's time.

The Hunter Quad is one of the very first high speed lifts Poma built. The Killington lifts were Yan detachables and were rebuilt by Poma because they were highly unsafe, not because of age.

I think he's referring to Belleayre, not Hunter in his rant.
