New Southern Lift

[Johnskiismore]

I was hoping someone would help me with this. I am pretty sure an area down south is installing a new HSDQ this summer, but I cannot remember which one.

I've searched the websites and can't find anything, though I probably stared right at it.

Anyone know?

Snowshoe Mountain Announces New High-Speed Detachable Quad Lift for 2006-2007 Season

In a unique partnership with the Soaring Eagle Lodge Development Company, Snowshoe Mountain is excited to announce the purchase of a new high-speed detachable quad lift that will service the Widowmaker Slope System and adjoining trails. The lift's location will be only steps away from the new Soaring Eagle Lodge, Snowshoe's premier mountain address at the resort's Top of the World area. Installation will be during the upcoming summer and will be operational for the 2006-2007 ski season. The new lift will be constructed by Doppemayer CTEC and will reduce the lift ride from the bottom of Widowmaker slope from 8-10 minutes to less than three minutes traveling at 450 feet per minute. The uphill capacity of the lift will be over 2,400 skiers per hour compared to 1,500 skiers per hour with the current fixed grip, Widowmaker Lift.

With the addition of this new lift and the recent release of Soaring Eagle Lodge Phase Two (Phase One's 60 units was a great sales success), Snowshoe's newest mountaintop neighborhood is taking shape as the address of choice at the resort. The Lodge's guests and owners will be able to take advantage of the new lift and its related trails right outside their doorstep.

I guess that this is the "south" you are refering to?

That's gotta be it!

Thank you!

That seems like a weird place to put an HSQ. They should put one on the only mountain that doesn't have one which slips my mind.
